Help keep the rear wheels tracking where they should with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Lateral Arm 524-030, built for the rear lower forward position on the 2009-2013 Mazda 6. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications; engine details for each model year are in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
A lateral arm links the wheel assembly to the vehicle's chassis and helps control the wheel's side-to-side position as the suspension moves. When the original arm is bent, worn or damaged, this Dorman arm is designed to take over that job.

- Reliable fit: Precision-engineered to follow the design and dimensions of the original components.
- Durable construction: Built to strict standards from sturdy, safe materials.
- Rigorously tested: Thorough quality-control measures are intended to support longevity.
Signs this part may need replacing: clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, a vague or wandering feel at speed, uneven rear tire wear, or a rear alignment that will not stay in specification. If a worn or bent lateral arm is the cause, this part replaces it. A wheel alignment is recommended after installation.
