TrueDrive SET-RK28150018-2 Rear Upper Forward Lateral Link Pair OEM Replacement 552502S000

The TrueDrive SET-RK28150018-2 is a pair of rear upper forward lateral links designed as a direct OEM replacement for select Kia and Hyundai front-wheel-drive vehicles. Sold as a complete driver and passenger side set, these links restore proper rear suspension geometry and help maintain accurate wheel alignment under normal driving conditions.

Lateral links—also known as assist arms or locating arms—are critical rear suspension components that control the lateral (side-to-side) movement of the rear axle. The upper forward position of these links plays a key role in maintaining toe angle and overall rear suspension stability, particularly during cornering and load changes.

Key Features:

• Sold as a matched pair — driver side (LH) and passenger side (RH)
• Rear, upper, forward position (assist link type)
• Direct OEM replacement for part number 552502S000
• Compatible with front-wheel-drive (FWD) applications
• Cross-references: RK622349, 522401, CMS901056, 552502S000
• Engineered to restore OEM suspension geometry and alignment specifications
• Rubber bushings included as part of the assembly

This set replaces OEM part number 552502S000 and is compatible with the Kia Rondo (2007–2012), Kia Sportage (2011–2016), and related Hyundai FWD platforms. Replacing worn or damaged lateral links can resolve rear-end wandering, uneven tire wear, and poor handling response.
