Dorman 527-097 Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly - Front Left Lower Rearward
Dorman 527-097 Front Left Lower Rearward Control Arm
Dorman 527-097 is a direct replacement suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for specific BMW applications. It is built to restore smooth ride quality, directional stability, and predictable handling on the front left lower rearward position.
Compatible with 2016-2022 BMW 740i, 2021-2022 BMW 745e, and 2016-2019 BMW 750i and 750Li applications, this OE-style assembly combines an aluminum control arm with a pre-installed ball joint, rubber bushings, and included mounting hardware.
- Direct replacement for the original equipment control arm and ball joint assembly
- Fits front left lower rearward suspension positions on select BMW 7 Series models
- Aluminum control arm construction with silver finish
- Ball joint included and installed for simplified service
- Pre-greased design with no grease fitting required
- Rubber bushings included for suspension isolation
- Machined ball joint mounting with threaded stud design
- Mounting hardware included
This suspension component is engineered for the BMW 740i, BMW 745e, BMW 750i, and BMW 750Li where the front left lower rearward control arm needs replacement. Dorman 527-097 is evaluated to help maintain proper suspension geometry and consistent road feel after service. The casting/forged control arm design, regular grade construction, and installed ball joint make it a practical OE replacement for worn or damaged front suspension hardware.
Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve
- Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
- Excessive play caused by worn ball joint or bushings
- Uneven tire wear related to suspension looseness
- Steering wander or reduced directional stability
- Vibration or imprecise handling from a damaged control arm assembly
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front left lower rearward position before installation. Because the ball joint is already installed, replacement focuses on removing the worn assembly and transferring the suspension back to proper alignment specifications after service. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Quality Assurance
Dorman evaluates this assembly through an industry-focused validation process to support consistent fit and suspension performance on the listed BMW applications. Part number 527-097 is built as a direct replacement for specific OE use cases.
