Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms For 2002-2006 Mustang
Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms feature a very high range of adjustment via high-
strength steel tubes, mated to forged steel ends with durable polyurethane bushings. The
polyurethane bushings are offset inside the forging, which removes the “splay” in the control arm and
positions the assembly parallel to the chassis for much improved performance and dynamics. One
strange anomaly on the new Mustang is thrust angle, which seems to be off slightly on almost every
Mustang built. The new
Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms go a long way in fixing the issue
altogether and correcting the suspension geometry to maximize performance.
CAUTION: Observe proper safety and repair procedures for installation of all chassis parts. Some chassis parts require specialized tools and
experience and therefore MUST be installed by a qualified technician otherwise an unsafe vehicle and/or personal injury could result. Wear safety
glasses and other protection.
WARNING: Before beginning, check for any damaged or loose suspension connections. Loose connections here indicate worn or broken parts which
MUST BE REPLACED. Failure to replace a damaged or worn spindle and/or link may cause the wheel to separate from the vehicle, possibly resulting in
serious personal injury. Installer
MUST check for proper clearance. Modification(s) may be required. Please proceed ONLY if the vehicle owner is
completely aware of these potential suspension modifications.

Installation Instructions:
Step 1: The OEM rear lower control arms are easy enough to
replace, but have a tendency to bind due to the “splay” in the
control arm and rear suspension geometry or architecture. First
remove the rear wheels to gain access to the rear calipers. Next
remove the emergency brake lines from the rear calipers and pull
the cables out of the slots in the control arms, which the
emergency brake lines run through to keep them safe from harm.
