Help bring back a smooth, stable ride with the Dorman control arm 524-217, a front left lower control arm with ball joint made as a direct replacement for the original on the 2008-2009 Ford Taurus and 2008-2009 Mercury Sable. It arrives with its ball joint and bushings already installed, which saves time and labor on the repair.
Direct replacement: Designed to replace the original equipment assembly on specific vehicle applications.
Complete repair: The ball joint and bushings come pre-installed in the arm, saving time and labor.
Quality engineering: Put through Dorman's industry-leading testing process, which aims for a smooth ride, directional stability and predictable dynamics.
Protective coatings: Additional coatings provide rust and corrosion resistance.
The lower control arm connects the steering knuckle to the chassis. It lets the wheel travel up and down while holding it in position, and the ball joint serves as the pivot that allows the knuckle to steer. If worn bushings or a loose ball joint in your original arm are causing clunking, wandering steering or uneven tire wear, this Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly replaces those parts as a single unit. This listing covers the front left lower position. Replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced handling. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

What does a Dorman lower control arm do?
It connects the steering knuckle to the chassis. This lets the wheel move up and down while keeping it in position, and the ball joint acts as the pivot for steering.
What comes pre-installed on 524-217?
The ball joint and bushings are already installed in the arm, so you do not need to fit those components separately.
What are signs the lower control arm may need replacing?
Clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear or torn bushings may indicate a worn arm or ball joint. Have the suspension inspected before you replace parts.
