CONTROL ARMS
CONTROL ARMS
The track control arm (also called an A-arm or wishbone) is a key suspension component that connects a vehicle’s wheel hub to the chassis. It allows up-and-down wheel movement while maintaining proper alignment and handling.
Track Control Arm Function & Structure
Material: Typically made of steel, aluminum, or forged iron for strength and durability.
Bushings: Rubber or polyurethane mounts reduce vibrations and allow flexibility.
Ball Joint: Connects the control arm to the steering knuckle, enabling smooth steering and suspension movement.
Track Control Arm Types
Upper Control Arm: Helps maintain wheel alignment and absorbs minor impacts.
Lower Control Arm: Bears most of the vehicle’s weight and handles road shocks.
Track Control Arm Applications
Found in most independent suspension systems (MacPherson strut, double-wishbone setups) in cars, trucks, and SUVs.
Track Control Arm Maintenance
Worn bushings or ball joints cause clunking noises, uneven tire wear, or poor handling. Regular inspections ensure optimal performance and safety.
Control arms are vital for stability, ride comfort, and precise steering control.
