A control arm connects the wheel assembly to the vehicle and lets the suspension travel up and down while holding the wheel in alignment. The ball joint acts as its pivot point. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering handling, uneven tire wear, and cracked or worn bushings. It is sold individually, and replacing the left side at the same time is recommended for balanced handling.
