Outstanding Suspension Upgrade

This control arm is a perfect addition to any automotive suspension system. It's well-built and performs fantastically, giving drivers a more stable and sturdy ride. The installation process is straightforward, taking only a few hours. The only downside is the price may deter some buyers, but it's well worth the investment for the improved performance. If you're looking for an affordable suspension upgrade, consider this control arm.

Pros
  • Easy to install and improves steering and suspension
Cons
  • May require additional parts for proper installation

Ball joint is weak as it is brand new - fits budget models

On the left I received an open package. I bought this one correctly because the ball joint and markings on the arm looked the same as on the MOOG. They're within .2 pounds of each other, but Dorman's ball joint is really loose and weak. I didn't expect that for so much money. It's like a $35 gun in terms of the extras. All of the welds are the same as MOOG, only they lack the strength you would expect from a new ball joint.

Pros
  • ENSURE THIS PART WILL FIT - To ensure this part fits your vehicle enter the make, model and trim level into Amazon Garage .
Cons
  • Fits

Pros
  • Sturdy construction - extra coatings provide long lasting protection against rust and corrosion
