Beck/Arnley Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:102-7780
Renew the front right lower link of your suspension with the Beck/Arnley Control Arm with Ball Joint, part number 102-7909, a direct-fit 2012-2022 Volkswagen Passat control arm that also fits the 2012-2019 Volkswagen Beetle. Beck/Arnley designs it to match OE form, fit and function. The arm arrives with its ball joint, so the control arm and ball joint assembly goes in as a single unit.
The lower control arm links the steering knuckle to the chassis and holds the wheel in position while it moves up and down. The ball joint is the pivot that lets the knuckle turn and travel with the suspension. This Beck/Arnley control arm is cataloged for the front right lower position on the listed applications.
Signs this part may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and play in the ball joint. If a worn arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces both. Inspect the related suspension parts, and have the alignment checked after installation. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full fitment chart.
