UPPER ARM ASSY / 38839
An upper arm assembly, also known as an upper control arm or upper wishbone, is a component of a vehicle’s suspension system. It is responsible for connecting the upper part of the wheel hub or spindle to the vehicle’s chassis or subframe. The upper arm assembly is a crucial part of the suspension system that helps control the movement of the front wheels. It works in conjunction with the lower arm assembly to support the weight of the vehicle, absorb road shocks, and maintain proper wheel alignment. The upper arm assembly typically consists of a metal arm or strut that connects to the wheel hub or spindle on one end and attaches to the chassis or subframe on the other end. It may have bushings or ball joints at the attachment points for flexibility and smooth movement. The upper arm assembly may have bushings or ball joints at the attachment points. Bushings provide cushioning and flexibility while allowing the arm to pivot and move. Ball joints enable smooth rotation and movement of the assembly, allowing for suspension articulation and wheel steering. The process of replacing an upper arm assembly may vary depending on the vehicle’s make, model, and design. In most cases, it involves removing the old upper arm assembly from the vehicle, disconnecting any associated components such as the ball joint or bushings, and installing the new assembly. Alignment may be necessary after the replacement to ensure proper wheel alignment. If you suspect any issues with your upper arm assembly or suspension system, it is recommended to have it inspected and repaired by a qualified mechanic. They can assess the condition of the components, determine if replacement is necessary, and perform the required maintenance to ensure the proper functioning of your vehicle’s suspension.
