FUNCTION OF CONTROL ARMS

The control arm connects the wheel hub to the vehicle frame. A ball joint at the hub side and bushings at the frame side allow vertical suspension movement while controlling forward and rearward movement. As a critical suspension component, the control arm transmits wheel support forces and withstands stresses in multiple directions, directly affecting safety and ride quality.

WHEN TO REPLACE
