How to set rotational Boundary condition to an A-Arm while it's 3D elements doesn't have any rotational degrees of freedom?

I'm trying to simulate a suspension assembly where A-Arms are my area of concentration. Now, I have to model the A-Arm to have one rotational degree of free (to capture effects of adjustment while the vehicle goes on a bump). But, the A-Arm being made of 3D elements it has no rotational degrees of freedom. So, how can i model this? Any advice?
