Product Description

Ensure reliable steering response and suspension stability with the Arrowhead Control Arm Front LH&RH, designed for Volkswagen models. This control arm is a critical component in your vehicle's suspension system, connecting the wheel hub to the chassis and allowing for controlled wheel movement. Suitable for both left-hand and right-hand front positions, it features a robust stamped metal construction with reinforced mounting points for durability under South African road conditions.

This part is compatible with select Volkswagen vehicles, including models such as Golf, Jetta, Citi, Fox, and Caddy. Please confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
