    Nope, not sided. The suspension arms all are but the steering control joints are not sided.

    So the straight ones fit NS or OS Nick? I have a clunk on the drivers side and I have 2 arms just wondered if they fit as I can't remember what side I bought a few years ago

    If you are talking about the lower straight arm, they are handed left and right.

    If its the track rod arms (part of the steering rack) they are not handed.
    The track rod ends (part of steering rack) are also not handed.

    I thought you talking about the track/toe control arms on the rear suspension.

    The lower straight arms on the front are sided and it is by the middle bush that the suspension strut attached to. That is why there is two different number one for left and one for right.

    The bush is on a slight slope as you look at it end on from the ball joint. You can see there is more metal thickness at either the top or bottom of the bush depending which way you look at it.
