Keep the rear suspension located and aligned with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm CMS501265. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2018-2020 Buick Regal Sportback and 2016-2025 Chevrolet Malibu, cataloged for the rear right upper forward and rear right lower forward positions. The lateral arm connects the rear knuckle to the vehicle structure, controlling side-to-side wheel movement and helping hold rear wheel alignment as the suspension travels.
Features:
A worn lateral arm or its bushings can produce clunking over bumps, uneven rear tire wear, or an alignment that won't stay set. If a failed lateral arm is the cause, replacing it with CMS501265 restores the correct mounting point and geometry. Have the vehicle professionally aligned after installation.
