Maserati Ghibli Quattroporte Rear Lower Wishbone Control Arm 670036580
Premium Rear Lower Wishbone for Maserati
Restore the solid, controlled rear-suspension feel of your Maserati with this rear lower wishbone / control arm, reference 670036580. Designed for selected Maserati Ghibli and Quattroporte M156 applications, the arm supports rear wheel location and suspension articulation under real-world driving loads.
Material & Construction
The assembly uses a formed steel arm structure with reinforced mounting sections, integrated pivot points and bonded elastomer bushings. The wide pressed-metal profile distributes suspension load through the mounting points, while the bushing isolates vibration and permits the controlled movement required by the multi-link rear suspension.
What It Does
- Helps maintain rear wheel position through acceleration, braking and cornering.
- Transfers suspension load between the wheel carrier and chassis mounting points.
- Supports stable toe and camber behavior as the suspension moves.
- Replaces a bent arm or worn-bushing assembly that can cause noise, looseness or irregular tire wear.

Why Replace the Complete Arm?
Replacing the complete wishbone renews the arm structure and its installed pivot components together. This avoids retaining an aged or distorted arm around a new isolated component and gives the rear suspension a consistent mechanical connection.
