Type 25 Lower Control Arm Radius Rod - 1985-92

Replacement front radius rod, also referred to as a camber strut, for Volkswagen Type 25 / T3 Transporter models from September 1984 to 1992. This suspension component connects the lower control arm to the chassis and helps maintain correct front suspension geometry during braking, acceleration, and cornering.

The radius rod is a vital part of the T3 front suspension system and is responsible for controlling fore and aft movement of the lower suspension arm while helping stabilise wheel alignment and caster angle. Over time the rod can become bent, corroded, or damaged through impact, worn bushes, or accident damage, leading to unstable handling, steering vibration, uneven tyre wear, knocking noises, and incorrect wheel alignment.

Designed for later T3 and Type 25 models from chassis number 24-F-019683 onwards, this replacement radius rod restores proper suspension control and steering stability. Ideal for suspension rebuilds, restoration work, or replacing damaged original components.

For best results, inspect the radius rod bushes, mounting brackets, lower control arm bushes, anti-roll bar mounts, ball joints, and wheel alignment during installation.
