OE-Style Front Left Lower Control Arm
This Dorman suspension control arm and ball joint assembly is a direct replacement for the original equipment on select Subaru applications.

Detailed Description
Dorman 527-087 is engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the original front left lower control arm on the Subaru Forester. It combines a stamped steel arm, press-in ball joint, threaded stud, and rubber bushings to restore suspension geometry and help maintain consistent steering response. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK622857 for the same application.
For buyers searching for a front left lower control arm for 2014-2018 Subaru Forester models, 527-087 provides an OE-style replacement path that matches the original application. It is also a relevant choice for Subaru Forester suspension repair when the original arm, bushings, or ball joint show wear.
What It Helps Fix
- Clunking or looseness from worn control arm bushings
- Steering wander caused by suspension play
- Uneven tire wear related to front suspension wear
- Noisy or unstable front-end handling over bumps
- Ball joint wear in the front left lower suspension position
Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2014-2018 Subaru Forester, front left lower. Confirm the vehicle’s suspension layout and compare the original arm before installation. Because the ball joint is already installed, replacement can be more straightforward than rebuilding the arm separately. Use the included mounting hardware and follow factory torque specifications during installation.
Quality Assurance
Dorman uses an industry-focused evaluation process to verify fit, function, and suspension performance characteristics. The result is a replacement assembly built to support smooth ride quality, directional stability, and predictable handling on the Subaru Forester.
