Common Questions About Rear Suspension Locating Arms

Prices typically range from $60 to $180. The price is influenced by the vehicle's make and the complexity of the arm—aluminum lightweight arms for performance vehicles are generally more expensive than stamped steel units.

Also known as a trailing arm or radius arm, it "locates" the rear axle or knuckle. It prevents the wheel from moving forward or backward during acceleration and braking, keeping your alignment stable.

The most common failure is the rubber bushing at either end wearing out. However, physical damage from hitting a curb or deep pothole can bend the metal arm, throwing off the rear wheel's caster and toe settings.

OEM used arms are preferred because they use factory-spec steel and rubber. Many aftermarket arms use thinner metal or stiffer poly-bushings that can transmit excessive road noise and vibration into the cabin.

While not strictly mandatory if only one is bent, it is recommended to replace both if the bushings are worn, as this ensures symmetrical handling and tire wear on both sides of the vehicle.

On some models, bushings are pressed in. However, the labor cost for a shop to press out an old bushing often exceeds the cost of a complete used OEM arm. Swapping the arm is a much faster and more reliable repair.

Absolutely. A locating arm controls the position of the wheel. After replacing any suspension arm, you must have a 4-wheel alignment performed to ensure your tires don't wear prematurely.

Left and Right are always determined from the driver's perspective (sitting in the car). We use your VIN to ensure the arm geometry matches the specific side you need.

Typically you will reuse your original high-tensile factory bolts. If your bolts are heavily rusted or seized, we recommend ordering new Grade 8 or 10.9 hardware.

A "thumping" or "knocking" sound when going over small bumps usually points to the locating arm bushings. If the noise is a "hissing" sound or if the car continues to bounce several times after a bump, the issue is likely the shock absorber. Inspecting the locating arm for torn rubber at the pivot points will confirm if it needs replacement.
