Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:522-522
Tackle a worn front right upper arm in one job with the Dorman upper control arm, part number 522-468, a direct replacement for the original equipment on the 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011-2018 Ram 1500 and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic. Dorman puts it through an industry-leading evaluation process aimed at a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable handling dynamics. Engine-level details are listed in the Buyer's Guide tab.
This Dorman control arm fits the front right upper position. Its ball joint connects to the steering knuckle and its bushings mount to the chassis, which helps locate the wheel as the suspension moves. Signs it may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Other steering and suspension parts can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before you replace anything. It is sold individually, and we recommend replacing the left and right sides together. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
Will this upper control arm fit a 2011-2018 Ram 1500?
Yes. It is listed for the 2011-2018 Ram 1500, along with the 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 1500 and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact configuration.
Which position does part number 522-468 install in?
It is cataloged for the front right upper position. It is sold individually, and we recommend replacing the left and right upper arms together.
What comes with this part?
The arm arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed, so you don't need to fit those components separately during the repair.
What are signs an upper control arm may need replacing?
Common signs include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Other suspension and steering parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause first.
What should I know before installing it?
Follow the vehicle service information for torque specs and for whether the fasteners can be reused. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
