Help keep the ride smooth and the steering stable with this Dorman control arm, part number 521-880, a direct replacement for the front right lower arm on the 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred, 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle and 2005-2007 Mercury Montego. As a Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly, it takes the place of the original equipment on these vehicles. Dorman's industry-leading evaluation process targets a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.

  • Trustworthy replacement: Directly replaces the original assembly on the listed vehicles.
  • Complete repair: Arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed, which saves time and labor on the job.
  • Quality engineering: Put through industry-leading testing designed to deliver a smooth, stable and safe ride.
  • Durably designed: Additional coatings resist rust and corrosion.

A lower control arm connects the wheel's steering knuckle to the vehicle's chassis. It holds the wheel in place as it moves up and down, and the ball joint gives the knuckle its pivot for steering. Worn bushings or a loose ball joint in the original arm can cause clunks, wandering steering or uneven tire wear. If those parts are the cause, this assembly replaces them together. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and torque values, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
