This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly comes with the ball joint and bushings already installed, which saves time and labor during the repair. Dorman evaluated the design through an industry-leading process aimed at a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable handling.
The upper control arm connects the steering knuckle to the vehicle's chassis. It lets the wheel travel up and down while helping to locate it, and the ball joint serves as the steering pivot. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. This listing is for one front left upper arm. We recommend replacing both sides together for balanced handling.
