Baywindow Bus Rear A-Arm - 1971-79 - Right

This Genuine Volkswagen rear right A-arm is an OE-quality replacement for all Baywindow Buses built from August 1971 to 1979. Forming an essential part of the independent rear suspension system, the A-arm supports the hub assembly, maintains wheel alignment, and ensures stable handling under all driving conditions.

Fitted on the right (driver’s side on RHD models), this arm links the rear wheel assembly to the torsion housing and works in conjunction with the spring plate, torsion bar, and rear shock absorber. Over decades of use, original A-arms can become corroded, bent, or suffer from worn pivot points—leading to vague steering feel, uneven tyre wear, instability, or poor tracking.

This Genuine VW unit is manufactured to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect geometry, correct bush housing alignment, and long-lasting strength. It is a direct bolt-on replacement, ideal for restorations, daily-driver refreshes, or full suspension rebuilds.

Recommended additional parts during installation:

• Pivot bushes

• Spring plate bushes

• Rear wheel bearings

• Rear shock absorbers

• Replacement fasteners and shims

Refitting a fresh Genuine VW A-arm restores factory handling characteristics, reduces noise and vibration, and ensures your Baywindow suspension performs as intended.
