Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:522-522
Reconnect your wheel to the chassis with a ready-to-install unit: the Dorman control arm 522-886 is a control arm with ball joint for the front right lower forward position, and it arrives with its ball joint and bushings already installed. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2013-2019 BMW 640i Gran Coupe, 2013-2019 BMW 650i Gran Coupe and 2012-2018 BMW 640i. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly directly replaces the original assembly on specific vehicle applications. The arm helps locate the wheel and holds the ball joint that lets the steering knuckle pivot as the suspension moves.
Signs this Dorman lower control arm may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and worn bushings. If a worn arm or ball joint is causing the problem, this assembly replaces the arm, ball joint and bushings as one unit. This listing is for one arm. It is sold individually, and replacing both sides together is recommended. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
