How to effectively manage the Control Arm while removing and installing the rear suspension components on Volkswagen Jetta?

Unscrew the bolts attaching the rear wheel, lift the back of the car and support it safely on jackstands making sure the front wheels are blocked so that they do not roll. Slide the back wheel and the coil spring. Support the subframe on the same side where the upper arm will be removed by means of a floor jack then unhook the speed sensor wire of the upper arm. Indicate the relationship of the adjuster cam on the upper control arm-to-subframe fastener on the subframe, and then the upper control arm-to-subframe fastener, and then the upper arm-to-knuckle fastener to remove the arm. Check the bushings; look at them, and in case they are damaged or worn, go to an automotive machine shop. The opposite of removing is installation where all suspension fasteners via rubber bushings are tightened to the correct amount of torque at ride height via new fasteners and to center the adjuster cam on its mark. Install the wheel and bolt and then after that, drop the vehicle and tighten the wheel bolts and then check and readjust the rear wheel position. In the case of the lower control arm, disconnect the vehicle level sensor connection in case of fit, remove rear coil spring, and note the position of adjuster cam to subframe. Disassemble the lower control arm-to-knuckle and lower control arm-to-subframe mounting fasteners, and remove the arm off the subframe and check out the bushings. Installation procedures are the same as upper control arm. In the case of the tie-rod, loosen the coil spring, and disconnect the stabilizer links and bar brackets, and take the tie-rod to subframe and tie-rod to knuckle mounting fasteners. Check the bushings, which are not replaceable, and fit the new tie-rod by following the same torque and alignment instructions. In the case of the trailing arm, looseness should be taken away by removing the rear coil spring, parking brake cable bracket, stabilizer bar connection, and removing the trailing arm-to-knuckle and trails arm bracket-to-body. Installation After viewing the bushings, install in the same care as to torque and axis alignment.

Volkswagen Jetta Control Arm

The Volkswagen Jetta Control Arm is the highly important part of the car body and the front wheels since it keeps the tire in place and allows it to move smoothly over obstacles. This A-shaped component attaches to the chassis with rubber bushings, and to the steering knuckle with a ball joint, to form an A-shape, and pivots whenever the spring and shock respond to road anomalies, directing the vertical movement of the wheels whilst restraining fore-aft movement. Models early on were made of stamped steel, which was hard but subject to corrosion, but later Volkswagen models frequently applied cast iron to add additional strength or cast aluminum to reduce weight and corrosion, which makes the car sharper to handle. On any Volkswagen, any style will still use replaceable Control Arm bushings and ball joints, which are the highly frequent to wear out and can indicate trouble when clunking or rattling occurs. Of automobiles that use MacPherson struts, the arm fits nearly normal to the car and connects with an independent radius rod rather than an anti-roll bar to prevent front-to-back movement, whereas wishbone designs use two inner pivots to do that task without additional attachments. By keeping these parts straight, stress is not placed on surrounding shocks, springs, and sway bars and therefore drivers are advised not to hit hard bumps, slow down on uneven pavement, and examine rust, bends, and ripped rubber every 50,000 miles. A healthy Control Arm maintains the sensitive steering feel and the controlled ride that a modern Volkswagen sedan, such as the Jetta, should have.

Choose OEM Control Arm for superior quality and long-lasting durability. They match the Volkswagen's factory specifications exactly and pass strict quality control. If you plan to replace Control Arm on your Jetta, put OEM at the top of your list. You'll get the right fit, reliable performance, and peace of mind.
