Detailed Product Overview
This suspension control arm is precision-engineered and tested to replace the original equipment on specific applications. Dorman 522-518 is built for drivers servicing suspension wear on vehicles such as Nissan and compatible import applications where a direct-fit control arm is required. The steel body, coated finish, and rubber bushing are selected to match common OE-style suspension layouts while maintaining a straightforward replacement path. This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme CMS801166 for the same application.
Common Repair Uses
- Restoring worn suspension geometry after control arm bushing wear
- Replacing a bent or corroded front suspension control arm
- Addressing clunking or looseness from deteriorated rubber bushings
- Correcting uneven tire wear linked to suspension component wear
- Repairing steering response issues caused by worn control arm assemblies
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify vehicle application before installation, since fitment is application-specific and no universal fitment is listed. Dorman 522-518 installs as a replacement control arm assembly and should be matched to the correct side and suspension position for the vehicle. Because mounting hardware is not included, inspect existing fasteners and related suspension components before service. For Nissan suspension repair work, confirm the original arm length and bushing layout against the removed part before installation.
Quality Assurance
Dorman manufactures this control arm as a tested replacement part for OE-style service on specific vehicles. The part number 522-518 is supported by Dorman’s replacement-component engineering approach, with construction and materials selected for consistent suspension service.
