Differences with respect to the series control arm

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

In order to realize caster adjustment, the service control arm is provided with a special bearing at the connecting point to the diagonal arm. This special bearing has a larger bore with respect to the series control arm (dimension X). There are also corresponding bearing surfaces for the two eccentrics.
