Review on 🔧 Dorman 520-493 Front Left Lower Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly for Ford / Mazda / Mercury Models by Richard Payne

This product was a direct replacement and fitted well, but after almost two years the ball joint failed. It's been bad for quite some time and I've only now had time to look into it and find out what was causing the problems I was having with my machine. I used to work in the auto parts industry and we sold a lot of Dorman products. Those were good products, but that was 20 years ago. Either I got a bad one or the quality isn't the same. Ball joints should last much longer than 2 years. Therefore I cannot recommend this product.
