This
Febi control arm is a critical component of the vehicle's suspension system, ensuring stable and precise wheel control.

This control arm, with a MPN of 01264, is manufactured in Spain and measures 72 x 90 x 486 mm.
Key Features & Benefits
This part basically connects your wheel to the vehicle’s frame. It allows the wheel to move up and down while also keeping it positioned correctly. The bearing and joint allow for that pivoting movement, letting the suspension work properly and the steering stay precise. It’s a pretty key piece for smooth handling and a comfortable ride.
Think of it like part of the suspension’s foundation. It works with the shocks, springs and other components to absorb bumps in the road and maintain tire contact. It’s also heavily involved in steering; it helps translate your steering wheel movements into wheel direction. It's not a part you directly see working, but everything relies on it being solid.
Symptoms, Risks & Replacements
Well, if this starts to wear out, you’ll notice it in a few ways. You’ll probably feel more vibration in the steering wheel, especially at higher speeds. Handling will become less precise, the car might pull to one side, and you might hear clunking noises over bumps. It also affects your tire wear, as misalignment caused by a bad control arm can cause uneven tread wear. It’s a safety item really, because compromised handling can make it difficult to control the vehicle. We carry these often, and Fixparts Online is a good place to find a quality replacement if you're looking. It's often overlooked until it causes a problem, but keeping it in good shape saves you headaches down the road.
