    RS2 Track control Arm identification

    I have a RHD RS2 and needs to replace the bushings on the track control arm. In the VAG diagram, it shows 2 arms and by visual check , my current one should be the lower arm - 1a (893407148D). Are the bushings on either side of the arm the same and replaceable, ie part number 2a (893407181) ? Or do I have to buy the complete arm because bushing on the other side of the "Y tip" is not replaceable.

    Thanks

    Also, I need lower ball joints as well ( shown as "guide joint" ) in the diagram. But he parts list shows 1 part with "3" and 3 parts with "(3)". Should I be getting 895407365A ( L ) and 895407366A (R) to match the "1a" arm ? This is quite confusing. I wish they label is "3" and "3a", "2" and "2a".

      Bushings are the same each side, so you need two of item 2a per arm. Ball joints are handed so you have a left and right hand side version, and they are also different on the cast arms vs stamped steel. From memory the part numbers with the A on the end are for the cast arms, i.e. the 365A 366A ones.
