Verify press-in ball joint service requirements, mounting hole diameter, and thread specifications before installation. Because the ball joint is already installed, this assembly is suited to replacing the complete lower control arm unit rather than servicing individual wear parts. Part number 520-728 should be matched to the vehicle’s suspension position before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDorman uses an industry-focused evaluation process for this replacement assembly to help support proper fit, smooth operation, and stable suspension dynamics. The iron casting\/forged construction, rubber bushings, and pre-greased design are selected to meet regular-duty suspension service needs on the BMW 735i application. Part number 520-728 is engineered as a direct OE-style replacement for the listed fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dorman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52752766369973,"sku":"BKKY-520-728","price":75.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/1442\/1173\/files\/RB_520728_Fro.jpg?v=1782886684","url":"https:\/\/www.partcatalog.com\/products\/dorman-520-728-suspension-control-arm-and-ball-joint-assembly-front-right-lower","provider":"PartCatalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
