MEYLE Rear Toe Link / Lower Control Arm For Tesla Model 3 & Model Y ^Sale

Description

Restore proper rear suspension geometry and handling with the MEYLE Rear Toe Link / Lower Control Arm, designed for applicable Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicles.

Also known as a rear toe link, rear toe control arm, rear lower control arm, or rear suspension link, this component plays an important role in maintaining the rear wheel's alignment and position relative to the vehicle.

The MEYLE 70-16 035 0004 is a replacement for Tesla OE 1044431-00-G and 1044431-00-H. MEYLE catalogs the component for the rear axle, left or right side, lower/center position and uses a steel-pipe construction.

The rear toe link helps control the vehicle's rear toe geometry. When the original link or its mounting points become worn or damaged, the vehicle may develop rear suspension noise, unstable handling, alignment changes, or uneven tire wear.

Replacing a worn rear toe link can help restore proper rear suspension geometry and predictable handling.

Important Fitment Note

Tesla has used multiple revisions of rear suspension components throughout Model 3 and Model Y production.

Always verify the OE number on your original component before ordering.

If your original part is marked 1044431-00-G or 1044431-00-H, the MEYLE 70-16 035 0004 is the corresponding replacement listed in the MEYLE cross-reference data.

What Does the Rear Toe Link Do?

The rear toe link is an important part of the Tesla's multi-link rear suspension.

Its primary function is to help control the toe angle of the rear wheel.

Toe refers to the direction the wheels point relative to the centerline of the vehicle. Maintaining the correct toe setting is important for:

• Straight-line stability
• Predictable handling
• Cornering behavior
• Tire wear
• Suspension geometry
• Vehicle tracking

The toe link works with the other rear suspension components to keep the rear wheel properly positioned as the suspension moves.

Signs of a Worn Rear Toe Link

A worn or damaged rear toe link can affect rear wheel alignment and suspension stability.

Potential symptoms include:

• Rear suspension clunking
• Knocking over bumps
• Loose or unstable rear-end feel
• Wandering while driving
• Uneven tire wear
• Changes in rear toe alignment
• Reduced cornering stability
• Excessive rear suspension movement
• Steering or tracking changes

Because the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y use a relatively complex multi-link rear suspension, worn suspension components can sometimes produce symptoms that are difficult to isolate.

A suspension inspection and alignment check can help identify the source of the problem.

Rear Toe Link vs. Other Rear Suspension Links

Tesla's rear suspension contains several different links and control arms. These components should not be confused with one another.

EVANNEX Ordering Guide

One side: 1 unit

Both sides: 2 units

Installation

Professional installation is recommended.

Because the rear toe link directly affects rear suspension geometry, correct installation and torque procedures are important.

After replacing a rear toe link, a four-wheel alignment is strongly recommended.

The rear toe setting should be checked and adjusted as necessary to ensure:

• Correct rear toe
• Proper vehicle tracking
• Even tire wear
• Stable handling
• Proper suspension geometry

Always follow the appropriate Tesla service procedure and torque specifications for the vehicle.

Why Replace Rear Toe Links in Pairs?

MEYLE lists a required quantity of 2 and recommends replacing the components in pairs.

Replacing both sides together can provide:

Balanced Suspension Performance

Both sides receive matching components.

Consistent Rear Toe Control

Both sides have new suspension components with matching specifications.

Reduced Repeat Labor

If both components have similar mileage and wear, replacing them together can help prevent another suspension repair later.

Complete Rear Suspension Refresh

Replacing both sides provides a more comprehensive repair when both original components show signs of wear.
