Lancer Lower Control Arms

Product Overview

Control arms are key suspension components that connect the vehicle’s frame to the wheel hub, helping guide the wheel’s motion while absorbing road forces. These are used arms offered at 4,500 ideal for affordable repair or replacement.

Importance of Lower Control Arms

Lower control arms play a critical role in your vehicle’s suspension system:

• Stability & Handling: They keep the wheels in correct alignment relative to the road and chassis, ensuring predictable steering and stable handling.

• Ride Comfort: Help absorb bumps and jolts by working with bushings and shocks — reducing vibration felt in the cabin.

• Tire Longevity: Proper control arms help maintain proper wheel camber and toe, preventing uneven tire wear.

• Safety: Worn control arms can cause poor handling, steering drift, or clunking noises — all of which affect driving safety.

Condition

• Used Parts: These control arms have been previously installed and removed.

• Cosmetic Wear: Normal signs of use like surface rust or scratches are typical.

• Functional Integrity: Arms should be straight and free of major damage, but you should inspect rubber bushings and mounting points for wear or cracking before installation.

Compatibility

• Intended for Mitsubishi Lancer models (confirm specific year and generation).

• Compatibility depends on chassis code and suspension configuration — always match part numbers or compare physically with your vehicle’s existing arms to ensure fitment.

 Performance

• Once correctly installed, these control arms help restore proper wheel alignment and suspension control.

• Performance improvements include sharper steering feel, better vehicle stability during braking and cornering, and smoother ride over uneven surfaces.

• Rubber bushings should be checked — worn bushings can reduce performance and should be replaced if necessary.

Price

• 4,500 KES — a budget-friendly price point for used lower control arms.

• Lower cost than new or remanufactured parts, making this a good option for cost-conscious repair
