Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:522-831
$110.99

Help your suspension stay smooth and stable with the Dorman control arm, part number 522-831, a front left lower replacement for the 2010-2014 Subaru Legacy and 2010-2014 Subaru Outback. It is built as a direct replacement for the original equipment on these applications, and it arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed so the repair goes in as one piece. For engine-specific fitment, see the Buyer's Guide tab.

  • Direct replacement: replaces the original front left lower control arm assembly on the listed vehicle applications.
  • Complete repair: the ball joint and bushings come pre-installed, saving time and labor.
  • Quality engineering: put through Dorman's industry-leading evaluation process, aimed at a smooth, stable and safe ride with directional stability and predictable dynamics.
  • Durable design: additional coatings provide rust and corrosion resistance.

The lower control arm connects the steering knuckle to the chassis. It pivots on its bushings, and the ball joint lets the knuckle steer and move with the suspension. This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly replaces the arm, ball joint and bushings together. Signs it may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and cracked or torn bushings.

It is sold individually for the front left lower position, and replacing the right-side arm at the same time is recommended. Follow the vehicle service information for fasteners and torque specs, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
