Racingline adjustable rear control arms for VAG MQB/MQB EVO

Racingline adjustable rear control arms for camber adjustment – MQB/MQB EVO platforms (VWR501001)

Racingline adjustable rear control arms are the ideal addition to any lowered suspension, enabling complete adjustment of the rear suspension geometry. Whether the vehicle is fitted with coilovers, lowering springs or you simply want to fine-tune the geometry for road or track use, they allow you to set the rear wheel camber precisely to your needs.

Why you need adjustable rear camber control arms

Lowering a vehicle changes its suspension geometry. The most noticeable effect on the rear axle is excessive negative camber, where the upper parts of the wheels tilt further inwards than they should. This causes uneven tyre wear, usually along the inner edge, reduces the tyre’s contact patch with the road and can result in a less stable driving feel than would otherwise be possible.

Factory rear control arms have a fixed length, so their adjustment cannot be corrected without replacing them. Racingline adjustable control arms solve this problem directly, allowing the correct camber setting to be restored and enabling better use of the tyres and suspension.

Made from solid aluminium

Each control arm is machined from a single piece of aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminium, then hand-polished and finished with a gloss black anodised coating. Compared with factory arms with rubber bushes, they are considerably stiffer, improving rear-axle response and reducing unwanted flex during fast cornering or under high loads.

Adjustment is simple thanks to the centre bar with left- and right-hand threads. Turning the centre nut lengthens or shortens the control arm, even while it remains fitted to the vehicle, making geometry adjustment considerably quicker.

Key features

• Wide adjustment range for precise rear camber adjustment at standard or lowered vehicle height
• Solid-piece 6061-T6 aluminium for high strength and lower weight
• Increased stiffness compared with flexible factory control arms for improved rear-axle feel
• Adjustment on the vehicle via the centre section with left- and right-hand threads
• Gloss black anodised coating for a clean appearance and durable finish

Compatibility

The control arms are designed for Volkswagen Group MQB and MQB EVO platforms and fit numerous models from VW, Audi, SEAT/Cupra and Škoda, including Golf, GTI, R, S3, RS3, Leon and Octavia model variants.

Important installation note

A complete four-wheel alignment must be carried out after installation. Camber control arms directly affect rear suspension geometry, so professional adjustment is essential for correctly setting camber and toe and preventing uneven tyre wear.
