Dorman 526-946 Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly - Front Right Lower
Dorman 526-946 Front Right Lower Control Arm
Dorman 526-946 is a direct replacement suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for specific Volkswagen and Audi applications. It is built for the front right lower position and is engineered to help restore smooth ride quality, directional stability, and predictable handling.
Compatible With 2004-2014 Volkswagen Golf, GTI, Jetta, GLI, Golf R, Golf SportWagen, Eos, Bora, and R32, plus 2004-2013 Audi A3, A3 Quattro, and S3 applications with cast iron or cast steel arms as noted in the fitment data.
- Direct replacement for OE-style suspension service
- Steel control arm construction with black finish
- Ball joint installed and pre-greased for service-ready installation
- Rubber bushings included for suspension isolation
- Bolt-in ball joint mounting with threaded stud design
- Mounting hardware included
- Non-adjustable design for factory-style geometry
Detailed Product Overview
This suspension control arm assembly is built with a casting/forged steel arm, rubber bushings, and an installed ball joint to match the original layout on the specified front right lower suspension positions. Dorman 526-946 is intended for vehicles that use cast iron or cast steel arms, and it cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK620142, Mevotech Original Grade GS20478, and Mevotech Supreme CMS20478 for the same application. The part number 526-946 is a practical OE replacement choice for Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta, and Audi A3 front suspension repair work where worn control arm components can affect alignment and steering feel.
What It Helps Fix
- Clunking or knocking from worn lower control arm bushings
- Loose or inconsistent steering response
- Uneven tire wear caused by suspension wear
- Front-end vibration from a deteriorated ball joint assembly
- Directional instability during braking or lane changes
Installation Notes and Tips
Install on the front right lower position only and verify the vehicle uses cast iron or cast steel arms before ordering. Because the ball joint is already installed and the assembly is pre-greased, the part is ready for suspension service, but final alignment is recommended after replacement. Confirm mounting hole diameter, ball joint thread diameter, and stud length against the original component before installation.
Quality Assurance
Dorman uses an industry-leading evaluation process for this control arm and ball joint assembly to support smooth ride quality, directional stability, and predictable dynamics. The design follows direct-replacement specifications for the listed Volkswagen and Audi applications.
