What It Helps Address

• Uneven tire wear related to worn suspension geometry
• Steering wander or reduced directional stability
• Ride quality changes caused by worn bushings or joint wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Install in the front left lower position only on the listed Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Volt applications. Because the ball joint is press-in and the stud is threaded, verify the correct service procedure and torque specifications before installation. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to confirm suspension geometry and steering wheel centering. Dorman 527-373 is also referenced by OE and aftermarket numbers for the same application, including Delphi TC6805.
