Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:524-796
Keep the front wheel located precisely on your RWD Mopar with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly 524-381. It installs as a direct-fit, position-specific replacement for the front left lower forward arm on the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300, 2011-2023 Dodge Challenger and 2011-2023 Dodge Charger (RWD models without high-performance suspensions). On these vehicles the original arm's undersized rubber bushings often weaken and break down early, so this OE FIX design targets that exact wear point.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Which position does this control arm replace?
It is engineered specifically to replace the front left lower forward control arm and ball joint assembly on the listed RWD Chrysler and Dodge vehicles without high-performance suspensions.
What vehicles does the 524-381 assembly fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300, 2011-2023 Dodge Challenger and 2011-2023 Dodge Charger (RWD, non-high-performance). See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Why does this arm use a two-piece bushing?
The oversized, heavy-duty two-piece bushing is made from denser, more durable rubber and distributes the suspension load over a greater area, addressing the undersized factory bushings that often wear out early.
Do I need to replace both control arms?
For optimal performance and service life, Dorman recommends replacing both assemblies together. This listing covers the front left lower forward arm only.
Are special tools required to install it?
No. Dorman notes that professional technicians and experienced DIYers can install this assembly without any special tools and without a shop press.
