Help keep your front end tracking steady and predictable with this Dorman control arm, part number 521-515, a front left upper replacement for the 2007-2018 BMW X5 and 2008-2019 BMW X6. It arrives with the ball joint and bushings already installed.
This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly directly replaces the original assembly on the listed applications. The upper arm links the steering knuckle to the chassis and lets the wheel travel up and down while holding it in position. The ball joint provides the pivot point for steering.
- Direct replacement: designed to replace the original equipment assembly on specific vehicle applications.
- Pre-installed components: the ball joint and bushings come already fitted, saving time and labor.
- Tested quality: went through industry-leading testing aimed at a smooth, stable and safe ride.
- Corrosion protection: additional coatings provide rust and corrosion resistance.
A control arm or ball joint may need replacing if you notice clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear. Other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. This arm is sold individually for the front left upper position, and replacing both sides together is recommended. Follow the vehicle service information for fasteners and torque, and have the alignment checked after installation. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
