Quick facts

A clunk over bumps, uneven front tire wear or loose-feeling steering can come from a worn control arm bushing or ball joint, but other suspension parts cause the same signs. Before replacing anything, look at the front right tire for uneven wear and leave the bushing and ball joint inspection to a shop, since it needs the vehicle raised. This listing is one arm. The front left is a separate part, and the two sides are normally replaced together.
