Moog RK642257 Suspension Control Arm - Front Right Lower
Moog RK642257 Front Right Lower Control Arm
Moog RK642257 is a stamped steel suspension control arm for the front right lower position. It is built with rubber bushings and a black corrosion-protected finish to support structural strength in everyday driving conditions.
Key Features
- Stamped steel construction for a rigid suspension mounting point
- Rubber bushings included for direct replacement of worn bushing assemblies
- Black finish for added corrosion protection
- No ball joint included
- No grease fitting included
- Non-adjustable design
Application Details
Fits 2010-2013 Kia Forte, front right lower; fits 2010-2013 Kia Forte Koup, front right lower; and fits 2012-2013 Kia Forte5, front right lower. This Moog RK642257 control arm is a direct-fit suspension component for the front right lower position on these Kia models. It cross-references Dorman OE Solutions 522-984 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Excessive play from worn control arm bushings
- Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
- Uneven tire wear related to suspension looseness
- Steering instability caused by a fatigued lower control arm
- Corrosion-related replacement needs on the original arm
Installation Notes
Verify vehicle year, model, and front right lower position before installation. Because the ball joint is not included, confirm whether your repair requires a separate ball joint assembly. Inspect adjacent suspension components, alignment settings, and fasteners during replacement to complete the repair correctly.
Quality Assurance
