Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:520-520
Designed for a smooth ride and predictable handling, this Dorman control arm, part number 520-335, is a front left lower arm that comes with its ball joint and bushings already installed. It fits many Dodge and Plymouth vehicles, among them the 1995-2003 Dodge Ram 1500 Van, 1996-2003 Dodge Ram 2500 Van and 1995-1998 Dodge B1500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
The Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly is a direct replacement for the original equipment on specific vehicle applications. It went through an industry-leading evaluation process aimed at a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.
The lower control arm connects the wheel assembly to the chassis and lets the suspension move up and down while holding the wheel in place. A worn arm, ball joint or bushing may cause clunking over bumps, wandering steering or uneven tire wear. If a worn front left lower arm is causing these symptoms, this assembly replaces it.
