EVANNEX Ordering Guide
Sold individually — replace in pairs.
For balanced rear suspension performance, replacing both rear lower control arms at the same time is recommended. The left and right arms experience similar mileage, road conditions, and suspension loads. MEYLE specifically lists this component as “replace in pairs only” with a required quantity of two.
Replacing one side:
-
1 × MEYLE HD 70-16 050 0025/HD — Rear Lower Control Arm
- Tesla OE: 1021416-00-D
- Can be installed on either the left or right side
Replacing both sides — Recommended:
-
2 × MEYLE HD 70-16 050 0025/HD — Rear Lower Control Arms
- Tesla OE: 1021416-00-D
- 1 × Left
- 1 × Right
Important: The same MEYLE HD part is used for both sides. There is no separate left- or right-side MEYLE part number.
Installation Note
After replacing rear suspension control arms, a four-wheel alignment check is recommended. Tesla service documentation specifically calls for an alignment check following replacement of these rear lower control arms.
