Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Dorman 520-289 Front Left Lower Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly - Select Ford/Mercury Models (Black) by Nathan Vaughn

Revainrating 3 out of 5

No oiler will fit wishbone

I started hearing noises under the left wheel a few months ago so I checked everything. I hadn't noticed this before, but there's no lube in the forearm ball joint. I can't fill it with lube because it doesn't come with a grease fitting. My only options are two: either buy a different forearm assembly, or buy a ball joint and have a mechanic install it. Rise up perfectly, no issues just the ball joint.

Pros
  • Durable construction - additional coatings provide long lasting protection against rust and corrosion
Cons
  • Some issues
