Yes, the ES & OZ Rally arms will work on a Ralliart.

i ended up getting a lca from orilleys today and only took me like 20 min to pull the old one and install the new one i it is much stiffer with a good ball joint in there. but as i feared it didn't fix the problem and my wheel bearing is 1000000000% bad lol worst sound i have ever heard come from the front of my car in my life. so got a new wheel bearing in hub ordered will have it tomorrow but now i need a knuckle because i know driving on a dry beat to hell bearing is just destroying the inside of the knuckle and i can't find one to save my life any help on that one guys?

a roasted bearing won't hurt anything but your *****... (ball bearings) as long as you can get the old one out the knuckle will be fine...

i already know the knuckle has a grove ground in it already from the last time i pulled it apart to change the bearing but didn't think it would cause the bearing to go bad this fast so now I'm replacing it all.

i was looking at some and the 09 ralliart knuckles seem to be the same but I'm not 100% sure but they do look the same as ours.

a lot of the parts are the same, it wouldn't surprise me if the knuckles were the same, cause the brakes are the same...

does the ES and OZ use a 12 or 14mm bolt on the front bushing? i know the arms are the same but the bushing sleeve might be a different size, remember te bushings i got from whiteline had a 12mm bore...ours are 14mm.

and by the way just so everyone knows yes the 2009 ralliart and our ralliarts use the same steering knuckles with the press in bearing. and also the same wheel hub 5x114.3 lug pattern good info to know and the part number for the knuckle for our car is (mr491321). hope this will help some one else at some point.

My car has on a left front lower control arm from an ES. I did not install it, but the guy who did made no mention of having to do anything to make it fit.
