Key Features & Benefits

This part connects the wheel assembly to the vehicle's frame. It allows the wheel to move up and down while steering, and it keeps the tire in contact with the road. Think of it like a strong link in a chain – it allows movement but keeps everything lined up and stable. It also houses the bushings and ball joints that contribute to a smooth ride. It’s a core part of your suspension and steering system. When you hit a bump, the control lever absorbs a lot of that impact. It works with the shocks and struts to keep the ride comfortable and predictable. And when you turn the steering wheel, these levers are what actually move the wheels in the direction you want to go. It’s a pretty fundamental piece, honestly.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if one of these goes bad you’ll notice. You’ll likely feel vibrations in the steering wheel, uneven tire wear, or the car might pull to one side. A bad control lever can make steering feel loose or sloppy. More seriously, a completely failed one could really mess with your handling and even become a safety issue. They take a beating from road conditions and time, so it's a part that eventually wears out.
