Product Details

The J.C. Whitney RF28780005 is an OEM-replacement rear lateral link designed to restore proper rear suspension geometry and alignment. This is the right-hand (passenger side), lower, forward lateral link — a critical suspension component that controls the lateral (side-to-side) movement of the rear axle and helps maintain precise wheel positioning during cornering and everyday driving.

Lateral links are subject to wear over time due to road stress, bushing degradation, and corrosion. A worn or damaged lateral link can cause rear-end instability, uneven tire wear, and poor handling. This direct-fit replacement is engineered to meet OEM specifications, making it a reliable, cost-effective solution for restoring suspension integrity.

Key Features:

  • Direct OEM-replacement design for precise fit and function
  • Restores factory rear suspension geometry and alignment
  • Right-hand (passenger side) lower forward lateral link position
  • Cross-references Ford OEM part number 8G1Z-5500-AA
  • Engineered to meet original factory specifications

This part is also commonly referred to as a rear suspension arm, trailing lateral arm, or rear toe link. Proper installation may require a rear wheel alignment after replacement.

Great price, easy ordering process.

Great ease of ordering

I have one of these on another boat. I love it and it's saved my lower unit more than once when I unexpectedly found a stump or hard bottom.. It also allows me to run with the motor higher because if the set back.

Received order in a timely manner, a good shopping experience.

Great
