Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm P/N:521-117
Help keep your rear suspension properly located with the Dorman control arm 521-909 from Dorman - OE Solutions. It is a rear lower forward arm built as a direct replacement for the 2001-2003 Toyota Highlander and the 1999-2003 Lexus RX300. The arm connects the rear wheel assembly to the vehicle's chassis at the lower forward position and helps hold the wheel in place as the suspension moves. Dorman says it is precision-engineered and rigorously tested as a replacement for the original equipment on specific vehicles.
Signs that a rear lower control arm may need replacing include clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, uneven tire wear, and a loose or wandering feel on the road. Worn parts elsewhere in the suspension can cause the same symptoms, so inspect the suspension before you order. If you are shopping for a Toyota Highlander control arm, this Dorman lower control arm is listed for the 2001-2003 model years. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full application details.
