Tough Dog upper control arms (TDCA-002) for the Toyota Fortuner GUN156 (2015 onwards) and Toyota Hilux N70 (04/2005-2015), sold per pair. Restore suspension geometry and ball joint angles on lifted vehicles.
Lift an independent front end and the factory control arms end up working at angles they weren't designed for – the alignment runs out of adjustment and the ball joint operates near the edge of its travel. Aftermarket arms are the proper fix on the Toyota Fortuner & Hilux N70/N80/N90: corrected geometry brings castor and camber back into range so the vehicle steers and wears tyres like it should.
Fit as a pair and have the vehicle aligned immediately afterwards – the whole point of the arms is the extra alignment range, and it needs to be dialled in on the machine.
Doing the whole vehicle at once? We also stock the matching front Coil Springs and rear Coil Springs for the Toyota Fortuner & Hilux N70/N80/N90.

The listed price covers both sides – always replace left and right together so the axle is evenly damped and sprung. Book a wheel alignment straight after fitting: any change to the front end moves camber and castor enough to affect steering and tyre wear.
Once a lifted independent front end can no longer be aligned back into specification – typically from around 40mm of lift – corrected arms are the proper fix rather than maxed-out factory adjustment. They restore castor and camber range and keep the ball joint working in the middle of its travel.
Tough Dog notes that fitting upper control arms to vehicles lifted more than 50mm may suffer premature ball joint failure due to droop lengths, and using strut spacers may affect the performance and longevity of the UCA ball joint. No warranty applies if the vehicle is used outside legal driving conditions.
Yes - the TDCA-002 upper control arms are designed to suit 48V vehicles. See the fitting instructions for details.
