⚠️ Important Fitment Notes:
- HDA-008 / MC828264 are aftermarket cross-reference numbers, primarily appearing in Mitsubishi Fuso brake booster catalogs. This product is primarily adapted for ISUZU FSR 6HE1; the above numbers are listed for customer cross-comparison.
- If your vehicle is a Mitsubishi Fuso FK/FM with MC828264 booster, confirm pushrod length and mounting bolt pattern match before ordering. The "short" vs "long" pushrod variants exist within the MC828264 family.
- Always provide VIN/chassis number for verification. Do not rely solely on cross-reference numbers.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Professional installation is highly recommended. A 4-wheel alignment must be performed after replacement.
- Lift the vehicle and support the front chassis.
- Remove the front wheel and disconnect the old lower control arm from the chassis and knuckle.
- Install the new complete assembly and hand-tighten all bolts.
- Torque Specs: Tighten the chassis-side bolt to 120 Nm, and the ball joint nut to 80 Nm (verify with ISUZU manual for your specific year).
- Reinstall the wheel, lower the vehicle, and perform a 4-wheel alignment.
Inspect the control arm bushings and ball joints every 20,000 km or after severe driving. Replace immediately if cracks, torn rubber, or excessive play are found.
