Front Upper Control Arm (Left) for Fangchengbao Bao 8, OE 15887400-00

This is the left hand front upper arm, OE 15887400-00. Sides are described as you sit in the driver's seat facing forward. This is also the upper arm at the front, so it is not the same part as a lower arm on that corner even though both sit in the same area. If the garage has quoted for an upper arm on the other side, that is a different number. Confirm the side and the position with them, then check the reference on the part being removed.

It is. The arm is listed under OE 15887400-00 and is also known as TA90-2904030AF, so a quote or an invoice showing the second reference is pointing at this part. Either number is a valid way to identify it. If the reference you have been given is not one of those two, treat it as unconfirmed rather than close enough. Send it to us with 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 commit.

This arm is safety critical, so it is not a driveway job. It is part of the front suspension, the car has to be supported correctly to work on it, and the fixings need the manufacturer's own tightening values. Those values are not given here and should not be taken from a general source. Book it with a garage that can look the data up for this vehicle and has the equipment to raise the car. Give them OE 15887400-00 when you book so the part can be checked before the car goes up.

The delivery time is 8 to 28 days, from order to door. Suspension parts are worth having in hand before the car is booked in, because a booked ramp with no part is a wasted slot. The shipping cost for your country is shown on this page and confirmed at checkout before you pay. Before you order, check the number on your old part against OE 15887400-00.

Metal is the material for this arm, which is consistent with a part carrying suspension loads under the car. It arrives new and should be fitted as it comes, without paint or coating over the surfaces the garage has to clamp. Keep it boxed until the day of the work so nothing knocks the mounting faces. When the old arm is off, have the garage lay the two together and compare them before the new one goes up. Anything that does not match should be raised with us at that point.

This arm is offered in the Original/Genuine tier from BYD alone. There is no Aftermarket entry against OE 15887400-00, so the page shows one option and one price for the left hand upper arm. For a part that is safety critical, a single traceable source is a reasonable place to be. If you have been quoted an alternative and want it checked, use the quote route on this page with the reference from the arm being replaced and a photograph of the old part and its label, and we will look into it.
