Description

Restore your Tesla’s front-end stability, handling precision, and ride comfort with this SIDEM Front Lower Control Arm (Right side, front axle). Designed specifically for the front right position, it serves as a direct-fit OE-quality replacement for the factory arm.

This premium SIDEM arm helps you recapture the factory-new driving experience.

• Better Ride & Handling – A firm, correctly located control arm ensures your Tesla remains composed over bumps and around corners.

Why This Matters for Tesla Owners

Your Tesla’s suspension may have fewer moving parts compared to conventional vehicles, yet high-stiffness components like control arms still wear over time—especially in front heavy or frequently driven vehicles. A degraded control arm doesn’t mean your car is falling apart—it means you’re due for a quality replacement to restore the ride and handling. Investing in components like this SIDEM arm preserves your Tesla’s performance, comfort and long-term value.

Pro Tip

For best results, replace control arms in pairs (left & right) for balanced handling, and always perform a professional wheel alignment after installation. This ensures proper geometry, maximizes tire life, and restores the suspension to factory behaviour.
