Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:523-261

$72.99

Description

Keep the lower control arm pivoting smoothly and securely with the Dorman control arm bushing, part number 523-261, a direct replacement for the 2011-2019 Ford Explorer and 2013-2019 Ford Police Interceptor Utility. It is cataloged for the front left lower rearward position. There it cushions the control arm's pivot point, holding the arm in place while letting it move with the suspension and absorbing road vibration. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

Direct replacement: designed to fit and perform like the original equipment bushing on the listed vehicles.
Reliable fit: precision-engineered to the design and dimensions of the original component.
Durable construction: built to strict standards from sturdy, safe materials.
Rigorously tested: thorough quality-control checks aimed at long service life.

A worn bushing may cause clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or visibly cracked or torn bushing material. These signs can also come from other suspension parts, so diagnose the cause before replacing anything. If a worn front left lower rearward bushing is the cause, this Dorman unit replaces it. For balanced handling, consider replacing the matching right-side bushing at the same time.
