My local dealership recommends that I replace the "Right Front Torque Strut Arm."

In searching online, I am having a hard time identifying that specific part with certainty. Is it a control arm? Or something else?

The car is a 2006 E350 Base Sedan.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks Konigstiger!

Konigstiger has been so helpful to so many members in many sections of the forums that we value him as a true expert.

Even though he drives a Pinto he will always be "Special K" to me. I hope I can get him a Kellog's endorsement.

Indeed!

One more question for you: For parts such as these, have you had any experience with brands such as Prozone, GES or Karl/Karlyn? Any opinions on these?

I just replaced my front end parts with MOOG. Too early to tell. The only issue I had was wrong part in correctly labeled box. They were exchanged by supplier. (Rock Auto).

I owuld go with the MOOG. Karlyn really let me down with a some parts for one of the MLs.

If their W211 parts are like their W220 parts, then those Karlyn parts will be made in China, i. e. junk. None of my Benzes will see that stuff.

I would go with either Moog (past experience on my truck has been good) or Lemfoerder.

Lemforder for me.. I got them from AutoHausaz. Still sitting in the bags awaiting installation lol..

Thanks, I have bought Lemforder for other parts and have been pleased, they're probably worth it here too.

Is this something that must be replaced in pairs (L-R)?
