All went smoothly until it came to the LCA and I cannot get it to budge using a pickle fork.

Strange some manufactures have different part #s for the front and rears, but after talking again with ECS they confirmed even Porsche uses the same part # for both.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello All
Ordering new arms from ECS Tuning and they don't seem to have different (coffin) control arms for the front and rear.
This
is the Meyle arm they retail, site only specifics the arm is for left or right fitment.
That arm is also included in the control arm package ECS sells
here.
Is this lower control arm interchangeable front and rear?
Thank You!
Thank you!

If you get the ones with the offset bushing to correct caster they will have a right and left but you can probably rotate that bushing. It's not something I've messed with yet.
If it�s the hard rubber bushing like in the GT3 Cup control arms, it takes a special tool, or possibly a good bearing set to move them.
I have the special tool.
I turned a left into a right to have a matched set, which I gave away in the pay it forward thread.
But I think you�re correct about the ones with machined bushings.
I just started a suspension refresh project yesterday using the FCP euro kit. All went smoothly until it came to the LCA and I cannot get it to budge using a pickle fork. Any advice? Or is it just a question of perseverance?
