Durable Construction and Design Details
The Dorman 520-650 suspension control arm is manufactured using a combination of casting and forging processes to provide a robust steel component capable of withstanding road stresses. The black coated finish helps resist corrosion, while the included rubber bushing with a 14.3 mm inside diameter and 39.6 mm outside diameter reduces noise and vibration. This control arm does not include a ball joint or mounting hardware, allowing for flexibility in replacement parts. Its welded ball joint mounting type and threaded stud design ensure compatibility with OEM ball joints when installed separately.

- Corrosion or structural damage to the original control arm
Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Dorman 520-650 control arm, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Remove the old control arm carefully, noting the orientation of bushings and mounting points.
