This is a pair of front bottom control arms (left & right) for various Audi, VW, Seat and Skoda models, sold under the MAXPEEDINGRODS brand. The kit includes the control arms (wishbones), carrying joints (ball joints) and coupling/stabilizer links as listed by the seller.
It fits many models including Audi A3 (8L1/8P1/8PA), Audi TT (8N3) and TT Roadster (8N9); VW Golf IV (1J1/1J5), Bora (1J2/1J6), New Beetle (9C1/1C1), Passat variants and older Golfs/Corollas listed in the product fitment table; Seat Leon and Toledo; Skoda Octavia models. Always verify against your vehicle's model code and year.
Compare your vehicle's VIN/model code and year with the fitment list in the product listing and the OEM/reference numbers provided (e.g., 1J0407151B, 1J0407365A, 1J0407366A, 1J0422803B, 1J0422804B, 1J0411315C). If unsure, contact the seller with your VIN or consult a parts specialist.
The parcel typically includes: 2x front wishbones (left and right control arms), 2x carrying joints (left and right ball joints), 2x bars (left and right control arm bars), and 2x stabilizer coupling bars (left and right). Check the seller's specific listing for exact contents.
These are aftermarket parts from MAXPEEDINGRODS designed to match OEM fitment and replace the original control arms. They list OEM reference numbers for cross-reference but are not original manufacturer (OE) parts.
According to the listing, carrying joints (ball joints) and stabilizer coupling bars are included. Bushings are typically included or pre-pressed, but you should inspect the product on arrival. If you need confirmation, ask the seller prior to purchase.
Professional installation is recommended unless you have experience with suspension work. Correct fitting, torqueing to manufacturer specs, and a post-installation wheel alignment are needed for safety and optimal handling.
Yes. Any front suspension component replacement that affects geometry requires a wheel alignment after installation to ensure proper tire wear and handling.
Common tools: jack and stands, socket/wrench set, ball joint separator, torque wrench. Time varies by experience and vehicle, typically 1–3 hours for a skilled mechanic to replace both sides; longer for DIYers. Always follow vehicle service manual instructions.
The product listing does not include torque specs. Use the torque values specified in your vehicle's repair manual or a dealer/service manual for safe installation.
MAXPEEDINGRODS aftermarket control arms are generally made from high-grade steel with reinforced joints and bushings designed to meet or exceed OEM performance. Quality can vary by batch—inspect parts on delivery and confirm with seller reviews if needed.
Contact the seller or marketplace immediately. Return, exchange or refund policies depend on the seller—retain packaging and photos of the part and vehicle fitment to support your claim.
It's common practice to replace both left and right control arms at the same time to ensure even wear and consistent suspension geometry, especially if one arm has failed or is significantly worn.
Aftermarket arms are typically less expensive and can offer comparable fit and function, but differences may exist in finish, components (bushings/ball joints), and longevity. Verify fit via OEM reference numbers and check warranty/return terms.
Warranty information is not included in the product description. Warranty length and coverage vary by seller and region—check the individual listing or contact the seller for specific warranty and return policies before purchasing.
