Detailed Description
This Dorman lateral arm, part number 522-117, is precision-engineered for OE-style replacement on the rear suspension of the Nissan X-Trail. It is intended for the rear left forward location and is built from steel with regular-grade construction to match the original mounting layout. The included rubber bushings help restore suspension connection points where worn bushings can affect alignment stability and rear-end control. This part cross-references Delphi TC3476 for the same application.
Common Problems It Can Help Address
- Rear suspension looseness or clunking from worn arm bushings
- Uneven tire wear related to rear suspension movement
- Excessive play at the rear left forward suspension link
- Noise over bumps caused by deteriorated lateral arm components
- Loss of rear suspension geometry after bushing wear
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the rear left forward position before installation on the 2005-2007 Nissan X-Trail. Compare the original arm length, mounting points, and bushing orientation to the replacement part number 522-117 before removal. Because this is a non-adjustable lateral arm, proper installation and final alignment checks are important after service.
