The steel stamped arm uses a coated black finish and a rubber bushing to match the needs of OE-style suspension service. It is non-adjustable, with no ball joint installed and no mounting hardware included, making it a straightforward replacement for the original arm on the specified vehicles.

Confirm the existing arm matches the non-adjustable design and compare the overall length and bushing dimensions to the original part. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the correct fasteners as needed during installation. After replacement, inspect alignment-related suspension components and check for additional wear in adjacent bushings and links.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDorman manufactures this control arm as a tested replacement part for specific OE applications.
