Part Number: A9423501205
Description:
Genuine Mercedes-Benz rear suspension triangular torque rod / reaction rod for heavy commercial vehicles. This V-shaped arm controls axle location and torque reaction between the rear axle and chassis, helping to maintain correct axle alignment and handling under load and braking.
The OEM number on the part is MERCEDES-BENZ A 942 350 12 05 (A9423501205). Cross-referenced in commercial parts catalogues with 9423501205, 9423500505, 9423500805 and A9603500105, and aftermarket listings such as Gumet 11.35.01509. This type of triangular torque rod is widely used on Mercedes Actros MP4, Antos and Arocs tractors and rigids, as well as certain Axor and earlier Actros models, typically on Euro 5 and Euro 6 rear suspension layouts.
This used arm was removed from a complete working truck and was tested on the vehicle prior to dismantling. The bushes still have acceptable stiffness for further service life; there is no known play in the joints. Visual inspection shows only cosmetic corrosion and paint wear with no cracks or deformation to the forging.

After installation, axle geometry and alignment should be checked.
