This control arm is used in the front suspension to maintain wheel location and alignment at the rearward lower arm position. On Mercedes-Benz CL500 and S-Class models, a worn arm can contribute to looseness, uneven tire wear, steering wander, or clunking over bumps. The V30-1808 provides the correct application-specific geometry for these chassis.

What This Part Helps Address

• Front-end clunking or knocking from worn suspension joints
• Uneven tire wear caused by incorrect suspension geometry
• Steering pull or instability during highway driving
• Excessive play in the front lower rearward suspension arm
• Alignment issues after suspension wear or service

Installation Notes and Tips

Use the recommended special tool V99-1020 where specified for service procedures. Because this part is position-specific, confirm the front lower rearward location before installation and verify all related suspension components, including the stabilizer bar link kit, brake hydraulic hose routing, and steering tie rod end clearance noted in the fitment data. A professional alignment should be performed after replacement.

Quality Assurance
