Help restore steady, predictable front-end handling with the Dorman OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm with Ball Joint 521-121, a Dorman control arm that comes with its ball joint and bushings already installed. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2006-2010 Dodge Charger, 2005-2010 Chrysler 300 and 2008-2010 Dodge Challenger, where it mounts in the front left lower forward position.
Dorman designed this control arm and ball joint assembly as 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.
Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and noticeable play in the ball joint or cracked, worn bushings.
