The Lexus ES300 Control Arm helps to keep the front wheels of the sedan firmly aligned with the car's chassis by acting as the pivotal connection between the frame and suspension hardware. Mounted with bushings at the end of the frame and ball joints at the knuckle, the Control Arm swings up and down as springs and struts react to bumps and allows the wheels to move smoothly while maintaining their radial position. Early ES300 editions were built on stamped steel Control Arm pieces which proved strong but suffered from rust, so later styles among Lexus were designed with cast iron and lightweight cast aluminum styles, which modern versions of the Lexus carry for corrosion resistance as well as reduced unsprung weight which sharpens ride comfort. Regardless of material, with the exception of the MacPherson strut layout of the single lower Control Arm system, every ES300 front suspension system utilizes either dual upper and lower arms in multilink rear assemblies or a single lower Control Arm in the MacPherson layout and they are designed to perform the same basic function of conveying road forces to springs or torsion bars while preventing forward and backward wheel movement. When bushings or joints wear, noise and wandering can occur, a sign that the Lexus ES300 still gains from a new, uncompromised Control Arm.
