OEM Subaru Control arm

We've got a 2018 Forester, 118k miles and so far it's been a great vehicle. I've been very impressed with the AWD handling in Montana winters and off-road. I've done all of our maintenance myself after our initial free service period and only recently replaced both front lower control arms and wheel bearings which came out to about $265.

Pros: great vehicle, impressive AWD
Cons: replaced control arms, replaced wheel bearings
Vehicle: Subaru Forester
Mileage: 118000 km

Took a quick look on RA for you and if you scroll down further you'll see the heart symbol next to the Delphi lower control arms at $55 a piece for the front. I'd go with those.

Pros: higher quality tier

Tesla Control arm

Be sure to tell them that you hear grinding and clunking sounds when you turn the wheel so they fix your failing control arms. It’s a terrible design and they all seem to fail.

Cons: terrible design, prone to failure

MOOG Control arm

I ordered “Moog” upper and lower control arms to rebuilt the whole front end of my grand marquis. They all came in Moog boxes but they looked different. Only 1 of 4 control arms looked legit from the pics I sent to the “Moog” rep.

Cons: looked different
