Installation Notes and Tips
Installation of the Dorman 521-468 control arm requires removal of the old control arm and proper alignment of the new part. Since the ball joint is not included, ensure the existing ball joint is in good condition or replace it separately. Use appropriate tools to press in the bushing end and secure the control arm to the vehicle’s suspension system. It is recommended to have a professional alignment performed after installation to maintain optimal handling and tire wear.
