Pontiac Fiero Control Arm

In its broadest and most basic definition, the Control Arm is a mechanism through which the suspension system of the Pontiac Fiero vehicle is attached to its frame and through which movement and transfers of force are made to occur between the car's wheels and the frame of the car. This part enables the wheels to turn and twist in order to adjust itself according to the irregularity of a road in order to avoid any misalignment of the wheels and thus ensure that it handles well. The Pontiac Fiero control arm design includes the use of bushing for connection to the frame and ball joints for connecting to the knuckle or axle. Depending on the make and model of the Pontiac Fiero there are several different types of control arms that have been used for the vehicles, stamped steel and most recently cast iron and or aluminum designs have been used. Stamped steel control arms are quite strong, but they are capable of rusting and this weakens their stability. Whereas, new-materials provide better strength and lesser weight satisfying the performance demand. Handling bars have bigger torque handling capability to support alterations in the car, modifications like broader wheels or change in the height of the suspensions on the Pontiac Fiero.

Each OEM Pontiac Fiero Control Arm we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
