The SPL Parts Front Lower Control Arm Kit is a premium suspension upgrade that transforms the handling of your 986-generation Porsche Boxster or Cayman.
By replacing the factory rubber bushings with precision PTFE-lined, F1-fit FK USA spherical bearings, this kit completely eliminates bushing deflection and bind. The result is sharper steering response, significantly improved front-end grip, and exceptional stability under hard braking. T
he SPL Front Lower Control Arms also give you full adjustability over track width, camber, caster, roll center, and anti-dive, allowing you to fine-tune your car’s geometry for track days, autocross, or spirited street driving.
Whether you’re chasing lap times or simply want more confidence and precision from your 986, this kit delivers the performance and adjustability serious Porsche drivers demand.

Control arms are the key suspension linkages that connect the wheel hub and knuckle assembly to the vehicle frame, controlling wheel travel through both compression and droop cycles.
