Help restore a smooth, stable ride on the 1993-1998 Nissan Quest and 1993-1998 Mercury Villager with the Dorman control arm with ball joint, part number 524-123. This front left lower unit is built to directly replace the original assembly. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

  • Direct replacement: Designed to directly replace the original equipment on specific vehicle applications.
  • Ready to install: Each assembly comes with the ball joint and bushings pre-installed, saving time and labor.
  • Tested for ride quality: Put through Dorman's industry-leading evaluation process, which is intended to deliver a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.
  • Rust protection: Additional coatings help resist rust and corrosion.

The lower control arm links the steering knuckle to the vehicle's chassis. It lets the wheel travel up and down, and the ball joint pivots as you steer. Its bushings help absorb road vibration where the arm mounts. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and play in the ball joint. If a worn arm, ball joint or bushing is the cause, this Dorman part replaces all three in one piece.

For even handling, consider replacing the front right lower arm at the same time. A wheel alignment is recommended after installation. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and torque specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What position does this Dorman lower control arm fit?

It is cataloged for the front left lower position. The front right lower position takes its own matching arm.

The arm arrives with the ball joint and bushings pre-installed. You install one assembly instead of pressing in separate parts, which saves time and labor.

Which vehicles does part 524-123 fit?

What are signs the lower control arm may need replacing?

Common signs include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and play in the ball joint. Inspect the suspension to confirm the cause before you replace any parts.

Do I need a wheel alignment after installing it?

Yes. An alignment is recommended after replacing a control arm because the arm affects suspension geometry. Follow the vehicle service information for torque specs and whether fasteners can be reused.
