Front Lower Control Arm (Left) for BYD Yuan UP, OE 12740253-00

It is. This is the left hand side, meaning the near side on a right hand drive car and the off side on a left hand drive car, judged from the driving seat facing forward. The opposite arm has a different OE number of its own. If you are standing at the front of the car looking back, everything swaps over, and that is where most wrong side orders start. Confirm the reference on the arm you are taking off, then match it to 12740253-00 on this page.

Because two versions are available against OE 12740253-00 and both are priced on this page. The Original/Genuine listing is the BYD part. The Aftermarket listing is made by a different manufacturer for the same application. Both are new stock and both appear under this OE number, so the fitment table on this page applies to either. The difference is the maker and the price. Choose the tier at the point of ordering, and let whoever is fitting it know which one to expect so they can check the part when it lands.

Usually not. This arm carries OE 12740253-00 and the alternative reference SC2E-2904010, and it is often the second of those that appears on the component. Either one identifies this left hand front arm. If the number you can read matches neither, take care, because the right hand arm and other builds carry references that look similar at a glance. Send a photograph of the old part and its label through the quote route on this page and we will check it against the OE number before you order.

We would not recommend it. This arm is safety critical, since it is the part of the front suspension that holds the wheel in place. The car has to be lifted and supported safely, the vehicle manufacturer's own data has to be followed, and the result needs checking by the person doing the work. No fitting instructions are supplied with the part. Order it from this page and give OE 12740253-00 to your garage beforehand so they can confirm it against your car when it arrives.

Delivery takes 8 to 14 days from your order to your door. The listing shows which applies while you are ordering, for either price tier. If both front arms are being done at once, order this listing and the right hand listing together so the two travel on one consignment and the workshop is not left waiting on one of them. The shipping cost for your country is shown on this page and confirmed at checkout before you pay.

Metal is the material for this arm. A metal arm has no give in it, which means the bush eyes and the joint must match the car precisely for it to go on. Lay it next to the arm you removed and compare those points, then confirm against the fitment table on this page. If anything looks wrong, contact us before it is fitted.
