Yes. The tension strut or lower control arm has a lower ball joint on one end, and the tension strut bushing on the other.

You CAN replace only the bushing, using a press to remove the old bush and push in a new one. Or just replace the whole arm.

Lemforder is the OEM as I recall, but check FCP euro to be sure.

BTW, the bush is filled w a silicone fluid, when this ruptures the fluid is gone. It will LOOK ok, but will shimmy
