Lower Rear Trailing Control Arms Pair with Hardware - Left and Right for Ford Expedition Lincoln Navigator (Tubular with Polyurethane Bushings) | F85Z-5A649-AA | F85Z 5A649-BA

These arms appear to be heavier duty than OEM parts. Hardware fit fine except for 1 bolt, it had a raised area where the threads end on the bolt. It was just a matter of grinding it down just a lil bit to get it to go thru all the way.Just an FYI...2002 expedition (and possibly other models or years) the left side front bolt can only be removed 2 ways. Remove the gas tank or cut the bolt at the head side. I chose to cut it off, also when installing arm, fasten the front part of it 1st then the rear. It will make it easier to push/pry to get holes to line up & get bolt thru.

Installed yesterday and fit perfect! Only thing I would change is the mounting bolts need to be a little longer. The quality was great! Stronger and better than any other competitive product!

Perfect replacement part. More sturdy than OEM. Only installation note I can off is the original bolt at the front of the driver's side arm may have to be cut off, as the fuel tank is too close to remove it. When installing this part (with the provided new bolts) insert the bolt from the outside. A reciprocating saw makes clean work of removing the original. Overall, it's a better piece at a better price.

They looked like they were better made than the factory ones now I need the upper ones

These look to be a hundred times stronger that the factory ones. The hardware was bigger that factory so if using this hardware you must drill out the holes. I did use the new hardware and drilling out the holes didn't take long with a new drill bit and battery powered drill. While taking out the old arms, one of the bolts on the front passenger side had to be cut out because the bolt hit the gas tank and was too long to be just pulled out. The whole job took about 4 hours due to cutting the one bolt took a long time. otherwise not too hard of a job.

Worked great is longer than stock by about half the thickness of the bolt.

on a 2000 navigator the bolts wont work. they wont even go through the holes in the control arms! arms are good.

I received this item quickly to repair my Ford Expedition.The product seemed to be of high quality construction and material. I'm sure it will last longer than I keep the SUV.The only issue is that the bolts and bushing are a larger diameter than the original equipment. You will have to drill out the holes on the mounts to make it work... fortunately I had the drill and bits to accomplish the installation.
