For the best suspension performance, we recommend replacing the front upper control arms as a pair. Both sides experience similar mileage and road conditions, so replacing them together helps maintain balanced suspension performance and handling. The MEYLE right-side control arm is 70-16 050 0004, while the matching left-side arm is 70-16 050 0003.

EVANNEX Ordering Guide
This control arm is sold individually. For the best results, replacing the front upper control arms in pairs is recommended.
Replacing the right side only:
- 1 × MEYLE Front Right Upper Control Arm
- MEYLE Part #: 70-16 050 0004
- Tesla OE: 6008930-00-B
Replacing both sides — Recommended:
Why Replace Them in Pairs?
If one upper control arm is worn, the opposite side may have similar wear due to the same vehicle mileage and driving conditions. Replacing both sides at the same time can provide:
- More balanced suspension performance
- Consistent handling from left to right
- Reduced chance of needing another control-arm repair soon after
- Better overall front suspension condition
Installation Note: A wheel alignment is recommended after replacing front suspension control arms.
