Suspension - Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly

When the original equipment front left lower rearward control arm and ball joint assembly fails on certain Chrysler and Dodge vehicles, the bushings are often the reason. The factory bushings are undersized for certain applications and made from rubber that prematurely weakens and breaks down. Replacing that failed assembly with another OE or aftermarket product that lacks a more durable bushing can lead to similar future failures and potential driveabilty issues. The costs of those repetitive repairs and chronic downtime can add up in a hurry, particularly for vehicles used by car service, limousine and law enforcement fleets. This Dorman OE FIX control arm and ball joint assembly features an oversized, heavy-duty two-piece bushing that distributes the suspension load over a greater area and is manufactured from denser, more durable rubber, eliminating the primary reason for control arm failure. This upgraded assembly has been engineered and tested to help ensure a seamless, predictable installation on specified vehicles. For optimal performance and service life, both assemblies should be replaced.
