Target the root cause of repeat control-arm failures with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly 524-343. This front left lower forward control arm and ball joint assembly drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed 2005-2010 Chrysler 300, 2008-2010 Dodge Challenger, 2006-2010 Dodge Charger, and 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum applications (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details). It positions the wheel, allows controlled suspension travel, and carries an integrated ball joint that pivots as the wheel steers and moves.
On these RWD platforms the factory bushings are undersized for certain applications and use rubber that weakens and breaks down over time. This Dorman OE FIX assembly addresses that with an oversized, heavy-duty two-piece bushing.
- Upgraded repair: the two-piece bushing distributes suspension load over a greater area and uses denser, more durable rubber to target the primary cause of control arm failure.
- Cost-effective: a longer-term fix intended to increase uptime and reduce maintenance costs on service, limousine, and law-enforcement fleet vehicles.
- Position-specific: engineered to replace the front left lower forward arm on specified RWD Chrysler and Dodge vehicles with high-performance suspensions.
- Simple installation: installs without special tools and no shop press needed; for optimal performance, replace both control arms.
