Firm up rear-suspension tracking with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly (CMS861228), a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2018 Toyota RAV4. It serves the rear lower forward position, combining the lateral arm and its integrated ball joint into one serviceable assembly that locates the wheel and helps maintain rear alignment.
Clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, uneven tire wear, or an alignment that won't hold can be signs a lateral arm or its ball joint has worn. If a failed arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it in the rear lower forward position. Diagnose the underlying cause before ordering, and have the alignment set after installation.
