ArvinMeritor, Inc. announced today that it is raising its forecast for diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, before special items, to be in the range of $1.55 to $1.65, up from the top end of the previous range of $1.40 to $1.60, forecasted in the company's third-quarter earnings report.

Chip McClure, chairman, CEO and president, said, "Although we continue to operate in an uncertain economic environment, the ArvinMeritor team has executed well this year. We are pleased that we are able to improve our outlook for fiscal year 2008 despite weaker market conditions in North America and Europe."
