Description
Our Arastradero Rear Upper Camber Arms for Tesla Model 3 & Y take everything we’ve learned from motorsport and road car performance for over 15 years and apply it to the Tesla Model 3 rear upper control arm. We know how important it is for suspension arms to be easy to adjust, have great durability even in harsh climates, and have solid bearings rather than rubber bushings for the ultimate connection to the road. We took our knowledge on the topic and went to create the ultimate Tesla camber arms.
Most aftermarket suspension arms are made using either urethane bushings, which are used because they are cheap – or spherical rod ends, which are ideal for performance but don’t last very long in sandy or salty environments. Our solution is to use an OEM production sealed bearing – delivering the performance of the spherical and the durability of an OE part.
The sealed bearing is just like a ball joint, it is solid and has virtually no compliance, while being lubricated and protected from corrosion. Rod ends tend to thread into a suspension arm, which makes them very easy to adjust – whereas a pressed in bearing offers no adjustment. Our solution is to use a threaded turnbuckle allowing for precise adjustment. Rather than use jam-nuts – which always affect the alignment when locking down the nuts – our clamping system allows the alignment technician to perfectly set the alignment, then tighten the clamp bolts without throwing off the camber.
In addition, laser engraving indicates which way to adjust the turnbuckle to extend or retract the arm, saving any confusion for your local alignment technician, or for anyone trying to make some quick trackside changes. The turnbuckles are made from stainless steel – so they will never corrode or rust. The arms are CNC machined out of 6061 aluminum, and anodized blue for durability and aesthetics.
These arms come fully assembled at set to the factory length. We always recommend using anti-seize lubricant to prevent any galvanic corrosion between the aluminum and steel. Camber adjustment range is as much as you’d ever need for any ride height or reasonable desired camber setting. Arms come as a pair of two and are warrantied for three years from the time of purchase.
A ride height sensor bracket is included which can be utilized for cars with adaptive headlights. Contact us if you require an additional bracket if you’re using air suspension and need a ride height sensor on each side.
Don’t be fooled by imitators who have routinely copied our innovations and ideas in the performance aftermarket. MPP was the first to use sealed spherical bearings and it’s become the staple of our aftermarket suspension offerings. We were also the first to preset our arms to OEM length to help make installation a breeze. We’ll continue to find new ways to make better performance aftermarket parts, and appreciate your support and loyalty!

These arms are a great addition to the car, making precision adjustments at an event far easier than with a simple cam bolt which can be hard to accurately index, and they give the ability to dial in camber, which is lacking from the factory. The quality is great and the fitment was perfect!

Buy these – your tires will thank you! The stock suspension on the Model 3 offers no camber adjustment, and even with a lowered suspension you will be lucky to get more than a degree of negative camber. With these arms, you can adjust camber to your hearts content. I have had good results running about -2.5 degrees of camber, and now my tires last 2-3x longer. They are a beautiful and solid piece, easy to adjust with a sealed bushing that doesn’t require maintenance. I couldn’t recommend them more!
Arjay De Guzman –
I recommend these. Not only it will do the adjustments but it is also lightweight. Great quality and fitment.

This upgrade is a MUST! The savings on tires alone is worth this upgrade. These camber arms allow for a much needed flexibility to adjust the rear camber when lowering the suspension. All cars, when lowered, have a naturally induced negative camber when you lower the car’s geometry. This allows the negative camber to be adjusted outward (more positive) to make the tire/wheel flatter to the road. For road use you want the camber to be as close to stock as possible (-1.4 degrees) to maximize tire wear. For track use, you want more negative camber (-2.5 degrees) when cornering as the wheels have a tendency to push the wheel/tires out under load. There are other camber products out there and the only design improvement I would suggest is to move the adjustment cam towards the end of the arm not in the middle where it is the weakest.

Not only are they beautiful, but they are functional as well and a must have for any lowered vehicle. From the factory, Tesla does not allow for camber to be dialed in to maximize your contact patch for maximum grip and stability. Enter the Arastradero rear camber arms – fine tune your camber to exactly how you want it. It installs in minutes and all you need is a good alignment shop to dial in your camber! Highly recommended!

These arms were so easy to put in I almost thought I had done something wrong! The arms are beautifully designed and easy to adjust.
Eric Wai –
The ability to dial in camber (and toe) with factory components is lacking. If you are considering lowering your vehicle, this (and the toe arms) are a must!
Juan Hincapie –
The craftsmanship, quality, lightweight benefits of these arms make it the best in the industry vs. the competition. I’m glad I did the research and found these. Perfect alignment every time. Excess negative camber is a thing of the past!
Philip Baker –
The finish and quality of build are very impressive. I like the adjustability and how easy they are to work with. I paired these with MPP comfort coil-overs on my 2021 M3P and I am very impressed with the ride quality and the overall feel.

I have these rear camber arms combined with MPP Sport Coilovers on my 2018 M3P and they are perfect in helping you dial in your car’s rear camber with ease. They are of high quality (as is all MPP products) and I have no doubt that these arms as well as their bushings will last the test of time.

This part is for me a must have in combination with the MPP sport Coilovers and rear toe arm. It does a great job, and is provided for European cars with the bolt eye to install the level sensor of the car.
Definitely worth the price

Beautiful arms, and allows good adjustability. The solid bushings also help further tighten the rear of car. If you live where there is snow/salt, I’d advise you put anti-seize on the threads before installing, as per MPP recommendations.
Calvin Lau –
Nice and beautiful arms, the bushing is very tight for the control of the car.
Original arm bushing already broken within 20000km.
MPP brings my car controlling back.

I AutoX and run HPDEs and coupled Camber, Toe and Front Upper Control Arms to dial in alignment. Well made, easy to adjust and hold positions well. Definitely the main game in Tesla performance modifications.
Bryce Waguespack –
It came adjusted almost perfectly for the 1.75″ lift kit they sell. Coincidence? I think not.
Would buy again. They allow for perfect rear adjustments when raising or lowering the car.
