As a Dorman lower control arm, it locates the front wheel and, through its integrated ball joint, allows steering and suspension movement while keeping suspension geometry in place. If a worn arm, bushing, or ball joint is the cause of clunking, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, this replaces the affected assembly on the listed applications.
