Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Front Lower Control Arm Spherical Bushing Set

No. This front lower control arm bushing set has been discontinued and is no longer sold. It replaced the soft rubber bushing in the factory compression rod with a sealed spherical bearing to cut wheel hop and steering slop. For that same connected front-end feel today, look at the current suspension arm range, starting with our front upper control arm ball joint replacement and the full billet arm sets.

It swapped the rubber bushing in the front lower control arm, also called the compression rod or thrust arm, for a sealed spherical bearing. Rubber flexes under load, which shows up as wheel hop and vague steering. The spherical bearing removed that deflection so inputs reached the tire directly. It was built from 6061 aluminum and stainless steel and fit all Model 3 and Model Y variants.

This standalone bushing set is no longer in the catalog as our arm designs evolved. For sharper front-end response on a Model 3 or Model Y today, a complete arm upgrade beats a bushing alone. Our adjustable sway bar end links and billet control arm sets cover the same handling goals with current, warrantied hardware.

You might find a used set, but we no longer stock or warranty it, and spherical bearings are a wear item under hard cornering, so a secondhand unit could already be tired. Put that budget toward current suspension hardware instead. Tell us how you use the car, daily driving or track days, and we will point you to the right arm set for it.

Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.

This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.

To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.

Installing aftermarket parts does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts), a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because you installed aftermarket parts. Tesla must prove that the aftermarket part caused the specific failure in question to deny a warranty claim. UP recommends retaining all factory parts to allow reverting to stock if needed.
