Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS101112
Keep your rear suspension located and your tires tracking straight with the Mevotech Supreme Lateral Arm / Lateral Link and Ball Joint Assembly CMS90180 — the same part is cataloged under both the lateral arm and lateral link names. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2007-2012 Hyundai Veracruz, and 2011-2013 Kia Sorento, cataloged for the rear center / rear lower position. The lateral arm links the rear knuckle to the subframe and helps maintain proper wheel geometry, while its integrated ball joint allows the controlled articulation the suspension needs as the wheel moves through its travel.
Worn lateral-arm bushings or a loose ball joint can show up as clunking from the rear over bumps, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and difficulty holding a rear alignment. If a failed lateral arm or its ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it as a single unit. For balanced handling, it's good practice to inspect and, where appropriate, replace the matching arm on the opposite side. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details for your specific vehicle.
