Product Description

This Arrowhead CONTROL ARM FRONT LH&RH is designed for the front suspension system of select Volkswagen models. The control arm is a key component within the CONTROL ARM STEERING SUSPENSION & AXLES category, connecting the steering knuckle to the vehicle's chassis and allowing for smooth, controlled movement of the wheels. Its robust stamped metal construction and reinforced edges ensure reliable performance under daily driving conditions.

This part is compatible with certain Volkswagen vehicles. It is commonly used in models such as the Golf, Jetta II, and Polo I produced between 1996 and 2002. To ensure correct fitment, always verify your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering.

Common signs that your control arm may need replacement include clunking noises when driving over bumps, uneven tyre wear, vibration through the steering wheel, or poor handling and alignment issues. You might also notice excessive play in the steering or visible damage to the control arm or its bushings.

It is recommended to replace the control arm if you notice any of these symptoms or during suspension overhauls. Timely replacement helps maintain safe handling and prevents further damage to related suspension and steering components.
