It fits many vehicles, among them the 1989-1990 Dodge Daytona, 1989-1990 Dodge Shadow and 1989-1990 Dodge Spirit. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
This Dorman lower control arm locates the wheel and, through its pre-installed ball joint, lets the steering knuckle pivot and travel while helping keep suspension geometry in check.
- Complete repair: ships with the ball joint and control arm bushings already installed, saving install time and labor.
- Durably designed: additional coatings help resist rust and corrosion.
- Quality engineering: subjected to industry-leading testing intended to deliver a smooth, stable ride.
Signs the original may need replacing include clunking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear. If a worn control arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces the whole unit at once. Fits the front right lower position.
