Product Description
This CONTROL ARM BUSH FRONT AXLE UPPER L&R from Moca is designed for the front upper control arms of select Mercedes-Benz models. As a critical component in the steering, suspension, and axles system, this bushing helps to cushion and isolate road vibrations, contributing to a smoother and more controlled ride. It also helps maintain correct wheel alignment and ensures stable handling, especially during cornering and braking.
This part is compatible with various Mercedes-Benz models, including those from the W202, CLK C208, E-Class W210, and SLK R170 series, manufactured between 1993 and 2004. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Worn or damaged control arm bushes can lead to a range of symptoms, including clunking noises, uneven tyre wear, vague steering response, and excessive vibration through the steering wheel. You may also notice instability during braking or when driving over bumps and potholes.
If you experience these symptoms, it is advisable to inspect and replace the control arm bushes promptly. Replacing them restores proper suspension geometry, improves ride comfort, and helps prevent further wear on related suspension components.
