Replace a worn front right upper control arm in one step with the Dorman control arm with ball joint, part number 521-180. This assembly links the steering knuckle to the chassis and arrives with its ball joint and bushings already installed. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2005-2015 Nissan Armada, 2004-2015 Nissan Titan and 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

  • Direct replacement: Dorman built this assembly to directly replace the original on specific vehicle applications.
  • Complete repair: The ball joint and bushings come pre-installed, which saves time and labor.
  • Tested design: The arm went through Dorman's industry-leading testing. That testing is intended to support a smooth, stable ride with directional stability and predictable handling.
  • Corrosion protection: Additional coatings provide resistance to rust and corrosion.

Position: Front right upper.

Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and cracked bushings. Other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so confirm the cause before you replace anything. The Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly installs in place of the original arm. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation. We recommend replacing the left side at the same time for balanced handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Dorman 521-180 do?

It connects the front right upper corner of the suspension to the chassis. Its pre-installed ball joint is the pivot for the steering knuckle, which helps keep the wheel located as the suspension moves.

Can I use this as a Nissan Titan control arm replacement?

Yes. It is listed for the 2004-2015 Nissan Titan in the front right upper position. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for your exact vehicle.

Which other vehicles does it fit?

It is listed for many vehicles, including the 2005-2015 Nissan Armada and the 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

What comes with this assembly?

The control arm arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed, so you don't need to press those in separately.

What are signs of a worn upper control arm?

Common signs include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and cracked bushings. Diagnose the cause first, because other suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.
