Common Repair Uses

• Replacing a worn rear suspension control arm on Mercedes-Benz C300, E350, or GLC300 models
• Correcting rear suspension looseness or clunking from worn bushings
• Restoring rear wheel location and suspension geometry after component wear
• Addressing uneven tire wear related to rear suspension play
• Repairing a damaged upper rearward arm removed from the knuckle

Installation Notes and Tips

Install this arm in the rear left upper rearward position only, and verify the vehicle-specific notes before ordering. The arm is supplied without mounting hardware, without a grease fitting, and without a ball joint installed, so transfer or replace related components as needed during service. Because fitment varies by model and production date, confirm the Mercedes-Benz application against the listed year range and notes such as “From Knuckle” or the cutoff dates shown for AMG models.

Quality Assurance

Dorman tests this control arm for reliable OE-style replacement performance on the listed vehicles. The aluminum construction, coated finish, and included rubber bushing support consistent suspension service on compatible Mercedes-Benz applications.
