Description

Upgrade your Tesla's rear suspension with a MEYLE HD Rear Right Stabilizer Link, engineered as a technically enhanced, heavy-duty replacement for the original stabilizer link.

The stabilizer link, also commonly called a sway bar link, anti-roll bar link, or coupling rod. connects the rear stabilizer bar to the suspension. It transfers stabilizer-bar forces during cornering and uneven road conditions, helping reduce body roll and maintain stable, predictable handling.

This MEYLE HD version is designed with enhanced components and construction compared with a conventional replacement part. MEYLE states that its HD stabilizer links feature an enlarged ball-pin surface that reduces surface pressure and wear, while high-quality materials and precision manufacturing are intended to provide greater durability. MEYLE also backs its HD product line with a 4-year guarantee.

This specific part is the rear RIGHT stabilizer link and cross-references Tesla OE 1044496-00-F, 1044496-00-E, and 1288496-00-A. MEYLE's catalog lists it for applicable Tesla Model 3, and Model Y.

What Does the Rear Stabilizer Link Do?

The rear stabilizer link connects the rear stabilizer bar to the suspension.

When the vehicle corners, the stabilizer bar works to limit the difference in suspension movement between the two sides of the vehicle.

The stabilizer link transfers those forces between the suspension and stabilizer bar.

This helps provide:

• Reduced body roll
• Improved cornering stability
• More predictable handling
• Better suspension response
• Stable road holding
• Proper stabilizer-bar operation

Stabilizer links are important suspension components responsible for transmitting forces between the stabilizer and wheel suspension. 

Why Choose MEYLE HD?

A HEAVY-DUTY UPGRADE

MEYLE HD isn't simply a replacement part. It's a technically enhanced alternative.

MEYLE HD stands for High Durability and is designed around reinforced or improved components intended to provide greater durability than standard replacement designs. MEYLE states that its HD parts are developed to improve durability, reliability, and service life.

Enlarged Ball-Pin Surface

MEYLE's HD stabilizer links use an enlarged ball-pin surface to reduce surface pressure and help minimize wear.

Reinforced Construction

HD components are designed with durability in mind for suspension applications subjected to continuous loads and movement.

Precision Manufacturing

MEYLE says its suspension components are engineered and quality-tested to meet its manufacturing standards and OE-compliant fit requirements.

Long-Term Durability

MEYLE reports that its stabilizer-link designs have undergone long-term testing, including testing exceeding 1 million cycles without noticeable joint play.

4-Year Guarantee

MEYLE states that MEYLE HD products include a 4-year guarantee.

Signs of a Worn Rear Stabilizer Link

A worn stabilizer link can affect suspension performance and may produce noticeable noises or handling changes.

Common symptoms include:

• Clunking from the rear suspension
• Rattling over bumps
• Knocking when driving over uneven roads
• Increased body roll
• Less precise cornering
• Loose rear suspension feel
• Suspension vibrations
• Excessive movement at the stabilizer-link joints

Knocking, rattling, vibrations, play, and visible damage as potential indicators of a defective stabilizer link. 

If you notice these symptoms, have the suspension inspected by a qualified technician.

MEYLE HD vs. Standard Stabilizer Link

MEYLE positions its HD line as a technically enhanced alternative to standard replacement parts, with reinforced designs and a 4-year guarantee.

Rear Stabilizer Link vs. Other Suspension Components

Tesla's rear suspension contains several different links, so it is important to identify the correct component.

EVANNEX Ordering Guide

Replacing the right side only:

1 × MEYLE HD 70-16 060 0011/HD

Replacing both rear stabilizer links:

• 1 × 70-16 060 0010/HD — Left
• 1 × 70-16 060 0011/HD — Right

Installation

Professional installation is recommended.

The stabilizer link is part of the vehicle's suspension system, so correct installation and tightening procedures are important.

During installation:

• Verify the correct right-side stabilizer link.
• Inspect the opposite stabilizer link.
• Inspect the stabilizer bar and mounting points.
• Check the ball joints for proper seating.
• Follow the applicable Tesla torque specifications.
• Verify all fasteners are properly secured before driving.

A wheel alignment is not normally required solely from replacing a stabilizer link, provided no alignment-related suspension components were disturbed.

Replace Stabilizer Links in Pairs

EVANNEX recommends replacing stabilizer links in pairs. 

If one link has reached the end of its service life, the opposite link has experienced the same mileage and road conditions.

Replacing both sides can provide:

Balanced Suspension Response

Both sides receive matching MEYLE HD components.

Consistent Wear Characteristics

New stabilizer links are installed on both sides rather than mixing a new component with an older one.

Reduced Repeat Repairs

Replacing both links at the same time may help avoid another stabilizer-link repair later.
