United StatesFront Lateral Control Arm Lower - Bearing Upgrade Kit to Suit Tesla Model 3 and Model Y
 SKU | KCA561 |
|---|---|
 Installation Time | 2 Hours |
 Fitting Position | Front Axle |
Whiteline’s Solid Front Lower Control Arm Bearings for the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y replaces the soft factory bushings with sealed spherical bearings, delivering razor-sharp turn-in, improved mid-corner stability, and increased front-end grip.
Engineered for aggressive street driving and track use, our design features integrated crush tube sleeves to prevent bolt loosening – a known issue in OE arms under high-load conditions.
This kit is a must-have upgrade for any performance-focused Tesla driver.
Key Benefits
1. High-Precision Bearing Replacement
Replaces the OEM rubber bushing with a premium-quality bearing, delivering improved responsiveness and steering accuracy.
2. Engineered for Real-World Conditions
Through rigorous testing, we identified that polyurethane alternatives were unreliable in this application due to the pin-style bushing and the extensive articulation during steering. Our bearing solution eliminates these limitations for consistent performance.
3. OEM-Grade Design & Manufacturing
Developed with OEM-level quality standards in mind, this bearing utilizes the same engineering principles and manufacturing practices found in factory-original components, ensuring reliability and long service life.
4. Integrated Crush Tubes for Structural Integrity
Testing revealed subframe deflection under load, which caused mounting bolts to loosen. Our solution includes precision crush tubes that reinforce the subframe, preventing flex and maintaining secure mounting under all conditions.
5. Minimal NVH Increase
With minimal longitudinal force acting on this position, our engineering team achieved a conversion from bushing to bearing with negligible impact on noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), preserving ride comfort while enhancing performance.
