- Rugged-duty design: engineered for severe-duty use such as off-road work, heavy hauling and towing, and demanding commercial or emergency-vehicle service.
- Quenched and tempered steel ball joint housing: uses quenched and tempered steel rather than normalized steel, finished with a protective coating for added durability and corrosion resistance.
- Hardware included: the necessary hardware ships with the assembly and also carries a corrosion-resistant coating.
- Pre-loaded grease boots: where applicable, each joint is pre-loaded with premium grease in grease boots with molded-in standoffs to help keep lubrication in place.
Designed to match the fit of the OE design on the specified severe-duty applications, this DORMAN suspension control arm and ball joint assembly is a solid choice to replace a damaged or worn original.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does this control arm with ball joint do?
It is the front upper suspension arm that locates the wheel, combined with an integrated ball joint that lets the wheel pivot for steering and move through suspension travel. This CB90006RD replaces both as one unit.
What makes the RD (rugged duty) version different?
Dorman's RD line is engineered for severe-duty service. Its ball joint housing uses quenched and tempered steel with a protective coating instead of normalized steel, for improved durability and corrosion resistance.
Is mounting hardware included?
Yes. The necessary hardware ships with the assembly and also features a corrosion-resistant coating. Consult the vehicle service information for correct torque and whether any original fasteners may be reused.
What are signs this part may need replacing?
Common signs of a worn control arm or ball joint include clunking or knocking from the suspension, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or play in the joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Is this the right control arm for a 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe or a 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
It is listed for the 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500, among other GM trucks, SUVs and vans. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
