Replace a worn front suspension link in one step with this Dorman control arm with pre-installed ball joint, part number 520-726. It is a direct-fit replacement for the front right lower position on the 1978-1983 BMW 320I, all engines, and directly replaces the original assembly on that application.

This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed, which saves time and labor during the repair. Dorman puts it through industry-leading testing intended to deliver a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable handling.
