Dorman - OE Solutions Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:528-182
Keep the rear wheel properly located and pivoting smoothly with the Dorman - OE Solutions Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly, part number 528-239. It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear lower forward position on the 2001-2006 Lexus LS430, and it combines the lateral arm and its ball joint in one assembly.
The lateral arm links the rear wheel assembly to the chassis and helps control the wheel's side-to-side position. The ball joint gives the suspension the pivot point it moves on through its travel. Dorman engineers and tests this assembly as a dependable replacement for the original equipment.
Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, wandering or vague handling, uneven tire wear, and a loose ball joint found during inspection. If a worn lateral arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces both in one piece. A wheel alignment is generally recommended after you install suspension arms. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete fitment details.
