Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:528-282
Help your rear suspension ride smooth and stable with this Dorman control arm, part number 520-282, a direct replacement for the rear right lower position on the 2001-2008 Ford Escape, 2001-2006 Mazda Tribute and 2005-2008 Mercury Mariner. This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly directly replaces the original equipment on these applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific fitment.
A lower control arm locates the wheel and lets it travel up and down with the suspension, and the ball joint serves as its pivot. Signs this lower control arm may need replacing include clunking over bumps, a loose or wandering feel, uneven tire wear, or cracked or torn bushings. Diagnose the cause first. If a worn arm or ball joint is the problem, this part replaces both in one piece. Have the alignment checked after installation.
