Replace a worn rear lower lateral arm and restore proper rear wheel location with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly CMS861281. This rear lower assembly drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2011-2018 Toyota RAV4, 2015-2017 Lexus NX200t, 2015-2021 Lexus NX300h, and 2018-2021 Lexus NX300 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.

  • Resists corrosion: a protective surface treatment helps resist rust build-up.
  • Hardware included: additional mounting hardware is included in the box as a labor saver to simplify installation.
  • Integrated ball joint: the ball joint comes preassembled into the lateral arm, so you replace both as a single unit.

The lateral arm helps locate the rear wheel and control its side-to-side movement, while the integrated ball joint lets the suspension articulate through travel. Clunking or knocking from the rear, uneven rear tire wear, or loose, wandering handling can be signs that a lateral arm's bushings or ball joint have worn and may need replacing; diagnose the cause before replacing parts.

What vehicles does the CMS861281 fit?

It fits the 2011-2018 Toyota RAV4, 2015-2017 Lexus NX200t, 2015-2021 Lexus NX300h, and 2018-2021 Lexus NX300. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm engine-level fitment for your vehicle.

Is mounting hardware included?

Yes. Mevotech includes additional hardware in the box as a labor saver to help simplify installation.

Does this assembly include the ball joint?

Yes. The ball joint comes preassembled into the lateral arm, so you replace both together as one unit.

What are signs my lateral arm may need replacing?

Clunking or knocking from the rear, uneven rear tire wear, or loose, wandering handling can indicate worn bushings or a worn ball joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing.

Should I replace both sides at once?

Suspension parts on an axle tend to wear at similar rates, so replacing the matching arm on the opposite side is often recommended for balanced handling. Confirm the quantity your vehicle needs.
