Replacement of the suspension arm

Model: Volkswagen Jetta A4, MK 4 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Arm

The suspension arm guarantees the junction between the frame and the uprights. Its wear can lead to a loss of control of the vehicle. Replacing it is not a complicated job but it must be done in a workmanlike manner and in total safety. To start the operation, the car must be lifted off the ground. Unscrew the bolts with the appropriate wrench and extract the wheel from the hub. The stabilizer link must then be detached from the arm and extracted without breaking it. The last step is to remove the suspension joint, always with the help of the key. Once the joint has been removed, the arm can be extracted.
