Installation and Usage Notes
- This front lower control arm fits Citroën and Peugeot models including C4, C5, 307, 308, 407, and 508. Verify the position (left or right) matches your vehicle before installation.
- Apply penetrating oil to all mounting bolts prior to removal, as they are often seized-especially in rust-prone regions.
- Install the rearward bushing bolt loosely first, then guide the ball joint stud into the steering knuckle. Use a floor jack to raise the knuckle if needed for alignment.
- Tighten all bolts with the vehicle's weight resting on the suspension (at ride height) to prevent premature bushing failure. Never fully torque bolts with the suspension hanging.
- Torque specifications (Reference): Ball joint pinch bolt to 44-59 ft-lbs (60-80 N·m); control arm mounting bolts to 81-96 ft-lbs (110-130 N·m). Always verify with a vehicle-specific service manual.
- Replace all self-locking nuts with new ones during installation.
- A professional wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to restore proper suspension geometry and prevent uneven tire wear.
