2008 Volkswagen Passat Suspension Trailing Arm - Rear Right MAS Industries

So far so good but after research that I did, these products all made by Dorman and the autoparts places like Autozone, O'Reilys, Advanced may change the name on them but same guy makes them. The difference is I saved a buttload of money by going online...like half..I say a buttload because I had to purchase a few other parts dealing with the suspension.

I used one of these on my 2001 QX4 along with the 905-803, and was very pleased with the construction and fit. I ended up getting the bushings pressed out, repainted them white, and used polyurethane bushings as they're supposed to last infinitely longer.Would definitely recommend these or buy them again (here's hoping I won't have to)!

These work great. Tough do it yourself. I had to cut the bolts off. Replace the uppers when your at it.

I got a pair of these for my '98 Grand Prix GTP. If your familiar with the GM W-bodies, you know a lot of suspension parts rot out on these more so if you live in New England like I do. They are and exact fit for the OEM trailing arms and they don't have the U shape grove that collects dirt and mud. If youre attempting to replace these on your car, it is a good idea to replace the bracket on the body too because chances are its rotted out, only GM dealers have those though. It was a good purchase and a quick fix for me to do in the driveway once I had all the parts and tools.

These trailing arms are far more substantial than the OEM replacements, and don't cost a fortune. I did not find any installation instructions inside, but the installation was brain dead simple. It helps to have an pneumatic impact wrench to get the old bolts off, as these must be re-used. All in all a good investment

It beats the price of any aftermarket store. And Dorman is a name brand product that can be purchased anywhere.

Fortunately for me, I didn't have any issue with the bushings on with control arms I received. It is hard to tell in the picture but there is a bracket on the arms that is about 4 inches long and sticks out about 2± inches. These brackets are not necessary on a 1999 Nissan Pathfinder, and are a bit in the way, so I ended up taking them off with an angel grinder. Other than the little extra work, these did the job and stopped the sway I was having with my vehicle.

My 2003 Pathfinder was experiencing what the dealer affectionately called 'death wobble' where the bushings in the lower and upper control (trailing) arms have reached their end of life period. If you're experiencing the back end swaying when you accelerate or decelerate that is the phenomenon in question.As a less-than-shade-tree mechanic the task to replace them was initially daunting: buy new bushings, lift the truck, remove the old arms, somehow remove the old bushings (drill/blowtorch/saw), find a press to install the new bushings, and then reinstall the arms.Forget all that, buy all the parts new for the same (or less) cost than replacing the only the bushings. Buy new bolts while you're at it (I recommend the kit from 4x4parts.com) as the old ones are best removed with a sawzall and a plethora of blades.Set aside 6 hours of your time, go slow, go safe, and you'll save hundreds in dealership labor costs. The dealer gave me an estimate for...

Auto Parts 123 had an excellent price and provided fast delivery of two Dorman p/n 905-501 rear trailing arms. In my opinion, these are much better than the inverse U-channel arms that came on the vehicle. Would buy from Auto Parts 123 at AutoPartsWAY.com again.
