Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Lower Control Arms - Fixed fits the 2007-2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT (S197). Application note: Set of two fixed arms. Position: rear. The listing names the Shelby GT trim. In the box: 2 arms. Part number KTA158. The chassis code on the listing is S197.
The arms are what keep a wheel tracking correctly over bumps, under braking, and through corners. When their bushings wear or the arm bends, alignment changes under load. A replacement set puts a sound arm back on each side. A set that arrives with its bushings fitted saves pressing new ones into old arms. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 2 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Mustang, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit, and Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit.
Features
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
