Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:520-520
Help keep the front end smooth and stable with the Dorman control arm P/N 520-609, a front left upper Control Arm with Ball Joint built as a direct replacement for the original equipment on the 1991-1995 Acura Legend and 1996-1998 Acura TL. It arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed, so you replace one assembly instead of fitting separate components, saving time and labor.
A control arm connects the wheel assembly to the vehicle's chassis and lets the suspension travel up and down. Its ball joint gives the steering knuckle a pivot point as the wheels turn. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, cracked bushings or a torn ball joint boot. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the suspension before replacing parts. If a worn front left upper arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces both in one piece. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
