Why Cars Need Two Control Arms (in Simple Terms)

Stability

Like holding a ladder with two hands (not one), two arms keep the wheel steady over bumps and turns.

Precision Control

The upper arm controls tilt (camber), while the lower arm handles side forces. Together, they keep tires flat on the road.

Durability

Sharing the load between two arms reduces stress, preventing wear.

Analogy: Imagine a door hinge—single hinge = wobbly, double hinges = smooth movement. Same logic!
