These guys connect your wheel hub—basically where the wheel attaches—to the vehicle’s frame. They allow up and down movement of the wheel while keeping it properly positioned side – to – side. Think of it like your forearm connecting your hand to your shoulder; it allows a range of motion but keeps everything aligned. They also house the bushings which absorb road shock and vibration. It's a key part of your suspension system. It’s what allows your wheel to move up and down with bumps in the road, keeping your tire in contact with the pavement. It works alongside other suspension pieces like shocks and springs. It’s really the foundational link between your wheel and the chassis. If these wear out or get damaged, you’ll notice it. It’ll probably start with some uneven tire wear, or a clunking noise coming from the front end, especially when going over bumps. If it gets really bad, your steering can feel loose, and it can affect your wheel alignment. It's a safety item, honestly. A worn connecting rod can make it hard to control the car. You can find replacements pretty easily, we carry a good selection at Fixparts Online, and getting it fixed promptly will keep you riding smooth and safe. Confidence in every purchase: Connecting Rod (MPN 5Q0505465A) is covered by a 12-month warranty!
