Detailed Description of the Suspensia Control Arm
This suspension control arm (X15CA0227) is engineered to replace worn or damaged components on select Ford and Mercury SUVs. The steel construction ensures structural integrity under typical road stresses, while the rubber bushings absorb shocks and reduce noise. Although the bushings are not pre-greased and the part is not greaseable, the included bushings are designed to provide consistent performance without additional maintenance.
