Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm P/N:526-161
Dorman 526-045 front left lower control arm for the 2008-2019 Toyota Highlander and other vehicles connects the front left wheel to the chassis. This Dorman control arm is precision-engineered and tested as a direct replacement for the original on specific vehicles.
A clunk over bumps, uneven wear on the front tires or cracked bushings can mean this arm is worn, though a worn ball joint or a loose sway bar link can be behind the same noise or wear.
As a lower control arm for the 2008-2019 Toyota Highlander, it takes one at the front left; the front right is a separate part, and the two are normally replaced together. The listing covers a wide range of Toyota and Lexus models, including the 2010-2022 Lexus RX350 and the 2018-2022 Lexus RX350L. If your car is not one of these, find its year and model in the Vehicles it fits section.
