A-Premium Rear Lower Forward Control Arms for Ford Escape 2013-2018 - Pair with Pre-Greased Bushings

A-Premium Rear Forward Lower Control Arm assembly for Ford Escape (2013–2018) is a brand-new steel replacement pair with pre-greased premium bushings engineered to restore rear suspension alignment and reduce vibration.

If your 2013–2018 Ford Escape shows signs of unstable steering, unusual rear-end noises, or uneven tire wear, worn rear lower forward control arms are often the cause. This offering from A-Premium includes both left and right rear lower forward control arms manufactured to original-equipment dimensions, each fitted with rubber bushings and supplied pre-greased for easier installation. It is sold as a two-piece solution that replaces the driver and passenger side rear lower forward arms so you can address both sides at once.

How will these control arms affect steering feel and rear stability?

Replacing degraded control arms tightens rear suspension geometry, which improves how the vehicle responds to steering inputs and reduces lateral play. The A-Premium bushings absorb shocks and isolates road harshness, helping the chassis track more predictably during lane changes and cornering.

• Restores correct wheel alignment and reduces rear-end shimmy.
• Premium rubber bushings cut down vibration and road noise.
• Pre-greased joints ease initial break-in and reduce squeaks.

What does this kit include and how is it different from an individual arm?

This kit supplies one rear lower forward control arm for the driver side and one for the passenger side, each fitted with bushings. Because both sides are replaced together, you get matched components that wear more evenly and reduce the chance of asymmetrical handling after installation.

• Includes: left and right rear lower forward control arms with bushings (no ball joints).
• Materials: durable stamped/formed steel built to OEM dimensions.
• Accessories and hardware included as shown in product imagery.

Will these parts fit my Ford Escape and what are the part numbers?

These control arms are designed specifically for Ford Escape model years 2013 through 2018 and match original mounting points and bushing diameters. Verify compatibility with your VIN or vehicle build, and reference the supplied part numbers to cross-check with existing components.

How simple is installation and what maintenance is needed?

Installation follows original attachment points and should be straightforward for any technician familiar with rear suspension work. The arms come pre-greased which reduces initial noise and eases the first few miles of operation; after installation, a basic alignment is recommended to ensure proper tire wear and handling.

• Pre-greased bushings reduce assembly effort and break-in noise.
• Exact matching dimensions simplify bolt-on installation and alignment.
• Recommended: professional install and post-install wheel alignment.
