I realize I'm reviving quite an old thread.
My rear bushings on my front lower control arms are dead on my 2009 VW Rabbit (2.5L).
Can anyone confirm that the Passat control arms & rear bushing bracket are a direct / identical swap?
(Just looking to reduce unsprung weight - want to leave suspension geometry as normal as possible, however will be installing H&R lowering springs at the same time (0.9" or 1.5" front drop (I think the 09 Rabbit stock is lower, so it's only 0.9" lowering) so if the Passat control arm improves geometry when lowered, that'd be ideal).
Let me know,
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
