Description

Restore crisp steering response, ride comfort, and road-handling confidence to your Tesla with this OEM-quality front upper control arm from SIDEM. Designed as a direct-fit replacement for the factory right-side arm, it ensures proper suspension geometry, smooth wheel motion, and stable handling, especially for high-mileage Model 3 & Model Y vehicles.

Over time, the stock upper control arms and ball joints on the front suspension can wear, leading to vague steering feel, creaks or clunks, and imprecise handling. This SIDEM arm replaces those worn components, helping you recapture that new-car steering confidence.

Why Replace the Front Upper Arm?
