Tackle a worn front suspension corner in one step with the Dorman control arm 521-899, a front left upper control arm with ball joint built to directly replace the original assembly on the 2009-2013 Mazda 6. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly comes as one unit with the ball joint and bushings already installed, so you replace a single part instead of servicing several separate components.
- Direct replacement: designed to take the place of the original assembly on specific vehicle applications.
- Complete repair: the ball joint and bushings come pre-installed, which saves time and labor.
- Tested engineering: put through an industry-leading evaluation process aimed at a smooth, stable ride with directional stability and predictable handling.
- Coated for protection: additional coatings help resist rust and corrosion.
A control arm connects the wheel's steering knuckle to the chassis and pivots on its bushings, while the ball joint lets the knuckle move with the suspension and turn with the steering. Clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear are signs this assembly may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before ordering.
