The car's suspension arm connects the chassis to the struts, but if it bends due to an impact, wears out, or breaks, it will need to be replaced. This is not a very complicated job; here’s how to change the suspension arm. Position the car on completely level ground and engage a gear.

Take the jack and place it under the axle that needs replacing, then slowly raise the car. Next, unscrew all the bolts with the appropriate spanner and finally remove the wheel from the hub. You will need two 14mm spanners to detach the stabiliser link from the arm. Once the joint is removed, the suspension arm will be in front of you.
