Control Arm Upper Arm

from

$188.99

The pinhole voiding feature allows the bushing to articulate without binding. The heavy duty mount adds to the increased rigidity of the arm and is designed to be universal for all years of the S197 chassis.

Product Features:
  • Engineered to alter/ optimise vehicles pinion angle to minimise vibration and increase rear drive power/torque to the wheels.
  • Protective plating on all metal components acts as a hard skin that is much tougher than conventional paint allowing this product to withstand the toughest conditions and resist corrosion for years to come.
