Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:521-232
$190.99

Help keep your SUV's ride smooth and predictable with the Dorman control arm 521-232, a front right lower suspension control arm with the ball joint already in place, built for the 1998-2007 Toyota Land Cruiser and 1998-2007 Lexus LX470. It directly replaces the original assembly on these applications. Because the ball joint and bushings come pre-installed, you skip the time and labor of fitting them separately.

  • Direct replacement: designed to take the place of the original equipment on the listed applications.
  • Complete repair: arrives with the ball joint and bushings pre-installed, cutting installation time and labor.
  • Tested design: Dorman's industry-leading testing and evaluation process is aimed at a smooth, stable and safe ride, with directional stability and predictable dynamics.
  • Corrosion protection: additional coatings help resist rust and corrosion.

A lower control arm links the steering knuckle to the chassis. It lets the wheel travel up and down with the suspension while holding it in position, and the ball joint provides the pivot for steering. Signs this Dorman lower control arm may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or a torn ball joint boot. Diagnose the cause before replacing, because other suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.

This part is for the front right lower position, and replacing both sides together is recommended. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and torque values, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
