Dorman 523-279 Rear Right Lateral Link Suspension Control Arm

The Dorman 523-279 is a direct-fit rear right lateral link (also known as a lateral control arm or trailing arm) designed to restore proper suspension geometry and handling characteristics. This replacement suspension component connects the rear axle or suspension assembly to the vehicle chassis, controlling lateral movement and maintaining wheel alignment during cornering and driving over uneven surfaces.

Key Features:

• Direct replacement for worn or damaged original equipment lateral links
• Engineered to match OE fit, form, and function for reliable performance
• Helps restore proper suspension alignment and reduce tire wear
• Manufactured from durable materials to withstand road stress and vibration
• Designed for the rear right position for specific vehicle applications

Lateral links are critical suspension components that can wear over time due to road conditions, impacts, and normal use. Symptoms of a worn lateral link include abnormal tire wear, poor handling, clunking noises from the rear suspension, and misalignment issues. Replacing damaged lateral links helps restore safe handling and ride quality while preventing accelerated tire wear.
