Rear

UPPER CONTROL ARM

DESCRIPTION
An upper control arm is attached to the top of each rear knuckle, connecting the knuckle to the rear suspension crossmember.

The attachment of the upper control arm to the knuckle is achieved through a ball joint in the upper control arm. The upper control arm is bolted to the rear suspension crossmember using a pivot bar which is rubber isolated from the upper control arm.

OPERATION
The upper control arm supports the upper end of the knuckle and allows for the up and down movement of the suspension under jounce and rebound travel.
