As a Dorman lower control arm, it connects the wheel assembly to the vehicle's chassis. It lets the wheel travel with the suspension while the ball joint acts as a pivot for steering. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and worn or cracked bushings. These symptoms can also come from other parts, so diagnose the cause before replacing anything. This listing is for one front left lower assembly. Inspecting the opposite side at the same time is recommended. For engine-level details, see the Buyer's Guide tab.
