Help your front suspension track smoothly and predictably with the Dorman control arm 520-324, a front right lower control arm with a pre-installed ball joint, built as a direct replacement for the original equipment. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2001-2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser, 2000-2005 Dodge Neon and 2003-2005 Dodge SX 2.0. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

Made for the front right lower position, this Dorman lower control arm links the steering knuckle to the chassis. Dorman puts it through an industry-leading evaluation process intended to support a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.

  • Trustworthy replacement: takes the place of the original assembly on the listed applications.
  • Complete repair: the ball joint and bushings arrive pre-installed, saving time and labor.
  • Quality engineering: put through industry-leading testing aimed at a smooth, stable ride.
  • Durably designed: additional coatings add rust and corrosion resistance.

A worn lower control arm or ball joint may cause clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or torn and cracked bushings. Diagnose the cause first. If the original arm or its ball joint is worn, this Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly replaces both in one piece. Replacing the left and right sides together is recommended for balanced handling, and a wheel alignment is typically advised after installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this Dorman suspension control arm do?

It links the steering knuckle to the chassis at the front right lower position. It lets the wheel move with the suspension, and the ball joint gives the steering a pivot point.

What comes with part 520-324?

The arm arrives with its ball joint and bushings pre-installed, so they don't have to be pressed in separately during the repair.

Will it fit my 2001-2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser or 2000-2005 Dodge Neon?

It is listed for the 2001-2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser and the 2000-2005 Dodge Neon, as well as the 2003-2005 Dodge SX 2.0. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for other models and engine details.

What are signs my lower control arm may need replacing?

Common signs include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and cracked bushings. Have the suspension inspected first, because other worn parts can cause similar symptoms.

Is the arm protected against rust?

Yes. Dorman applies additional coatings to this assembly for rust and corrosion resistance.
