Was wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I have a 2007 Mazda 6 GH. This one is the 2.5L petrol, SL model. I need two of the rear trailing / control arms / links, but I can’t seem to find them. Everywhere I search people use different names and different part numbers, with all of them leading to the bushings rather than the actual rear trailing arm piece themselves. I’m talking about the one that is fitted parallel to the car and is similar to a thin sheet of metal, I believe this is to stop left / right movement from the back of the vehicle.

Any help in finding these parts would be helpful. Names, part numbers, alternatives if the part just doesn’t exist anymore. Anything really, thanks.

 

Welcome to the forum
what country do you reside in? It makes a difference in advising and recommending Mazda related questions

 

not sure if this is how to reply, but I’m based in the UK

 

No that helps the OEM parts replacement market is a little different there then here in USA

 

Yes GB /UK is littler different for parts replacement info then here in the USA

 

is there a separate forum specifically for UK that may be of more help for me?

 

No but there are several members that live their so you just need to be patient I am sure someone will respond.

 

A quick internet search doesn't have much suspension parts for the 2nd gen Mazda 6.

I have found listings for replacement bushes for the rear control arm / trailing arm.

thank you, it looks as though I need the entire piece according to a couple garages. I have found a set in Spain but the prices are crazy. Another set on AliExpress but I don’t know how I feel about those. Might test it.

 

Can you double check and enquire why they recommend replacing the whole arm and not just the bush?

Is there heavy corrosion?
