Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:524-524
Replace a worn front left lower arm as a complete unit with this Dorman control arm, part number 524-265, a control arm with ball joint that arrives with its ball joint and bushings already installed. It is a direct replacement for the original assembly on several Infiniti models, among them the 2015 Infiniti Q40, the 2009-2013 Infiniti G37 and the 2011-2012 Infiniti G25. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
As a Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly, it links the wheel assembly to the chassis. It pivots on its bushings, and the ball joint lets the knuckle move as the suspension travels and the wheels steer. Dorman puts it through an industry-leading evaluation process aimed at a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.
This listing is for the front left lower position. The right side is sold separately, and replacing both sides together is recommended. Signs this Dorman lower control arm may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and cracked or torn bushings.
