Product Details

The Dorman 522-853 is a front driver side upper suspension control arm and ball joint assembly engineered as a direct OE replacement. Control arms are a critical component of a vehicle's suspension system — working in concert with springs and shock absorbers to absorb road impacts from potholes and speed bumps, while keeping the wheel in proper perpendicular alignment with the road surface.

Unlike a simple parts swap, Dorman engineers begin by analyzing the failure points in the original equipment design and incorporate targeted improvements to reduce the likelihood of repeat failure. The result is a replacement assembly that meets or exceeds original equipment standards for fit, form, and function.

Key Features:

  • Direct OE Replacement — bolt-on fitment designed to match the original equipment assembly
  • Front Driver Side Upper — correctly positioned for driver-side upper suspension geometry
  • Complete Assembly — pre-installed ball joint and bushings included, reducing installation time and labor
  • Improved Engineering — designed with corrective updates based on known OE failure points
  • Corrosion Resistance — protective coatings provide long-lasting durability against rust and environmental exposure
  • Rigorous Testing — validated by Dorman's product and quality engineering team for sustained, secure performance

The Dorman 522-853 delivers the smooth ride, directional stability, and confident handling expected of a properly functioning front suspension system. Part of Dorman's OE Solutions line, this assembly is a reliable, time-saving repair for worn or damaged upper control arms.

Great prices fast shipping

The item was what i was looking for and the price was right. Item was very good quality. Would order from Autoplicity again.

Thank you

Autoplicity had the lowest listing price for a part which I had done extensive research. To make the deal much sweeter, free shipping! On top of that, part was delivered in only a few days! Really, there was no reason NOT to order from them. Great prices and fast response are the reasons why I look forward to continued business with Autoplicity. Overall a positive experience, so I highly recommend.

Autoplicity had the best price on the part I wanted. It was shipped fast directly from the manufacturer. When I opened the box, there were some cosmetic blemishes, so I called Autoplicity at 6pm EST. Rob immediately answered the phone, looked at the pictures I sent him through e-mail, then forwarded the pictures to a representative at the manufacturer. Rob then called me back and gave me the name, phone number and extension of the person I needed to speak to. After giving my information to that person, a pre-paid return label was e-mailed to me from the manufacturer, and that same week, I had the replacement part in my possession. Great customer service!

This is an excellent site it has many things that most other sites don't carry. I will use this site first before any other every time for now on.

This store had a lot of products more than most other sites I looked at. The order was processed quickley and shiped the next day. I will use them again.

Definitely fast processing and shipping as well as very great low low prices
