Designed to locate the rear wheel and hold rear suspension geometry in the rear lower forward position, the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Lateral Arm, part number 524-058, is a direct replacement for a worn or damaged original arm. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2005-2017 Chevrolet Equinox, 2010-2017 GMC Terrain and 2008-2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
Dorman precision-engineers and rigorously tests this lateral arm as a dependable stand-in for the original equipment on specific vehicles.
Signs a lateral arm may need replacing include clunking or knocking from the rear suspension over bumps, vague or wandering handling, uneven rear tire wear, or an alignment that won't stay in specification. Other suspension parts can cause these symptoms too, so inspect the rear suspension first. If a bent or worn lateral arm is the cause, this part replaces it. Because the arm affects rear suspension geometry, have the wheel alignment checked after installation. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether they may be reused.
