Description
Product Overview
The iFJF Front Lower Control Arm Kit for 2011-2017 Nissan Quest provides a complete, bolt-in replacement for worn or damaged factory control arms. Each arm comes pre-assembled with a high-durability ball joint and new rubber bushings — no pressing, no special tools required. Simply remove the old arms and bolt the new ones in.
Manufactured to OE specifications using forged steel construction and precision-machined ball joint housings, these control arms restore proper suspension geometry, steering response, and tire wear patterns. Sold as a pair (driver + passenger side) with all necessary hardware included.
Key Features
-
Complete Pre-Assembled Units: Each control arm arrives fully assembled with a pressed-in ball joint and rubber bushings. No need to source or press separate components.
-
Forged Steel Construction: Heavy-duty forged steel body with corrosion-resistant black e-coat finish. Significantly stronger than stamped steel alternatives.
-
High-Durability Ball Joints: Greaseable, heat-treated ball joints with polished bearing surfaces for smooth articulation and extended service life.
-
OE-Spec Rubber Bushings: Factory-durometer rubber bushings provide the ideal balance of ride comfort and handling precision — no harsh polyurethane NVH.

Complete Hardware Kit: New mounting bolts, nuts, and cotter pins included. Everything you need for a professional installation in one box.
-
Sold as a Pair: Includes both left (driver) and right (passenger) side control arms. Replacing control arms in pairs is recommended to maintain even suspension geometry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my 2011 Nissan Quest?
A: Yes, this control arm pair is specifically designed for 2011-2017 Nissan Quest models with the 3.5L V6 engine, front lower position.
Q: Do I need an alignment after replacing control arms?
A: Yes — any time you replace suspension components that affect wheel alignment, a professional alignment is strongly recommended. Driving without proper alignment will cause uneven tire wear and potentially unsafe handling.
Q: What symptoms indicate I need new control arms?
A: Common signs include: clunking noises over bumps, wandering or pulling steering, uneven tire wear (particularly inner or outer edge wear), vibration through the steering wheel, and visible bushing cracks or ball joint play during inspection.
Q: Are these pre-assembled with ball joints and bushings?
A: Yes, each control arm comes as a complete pre-assembled unit — ball joint and bushings are already pressed in and ready to install.
Q: Can I install these myself?
A: Control arm replacement is a moderate-difficulty DIY job. You'll need basic hand tools (socket set, wrenches, torque wrench), a jack and jack stands, and possibly a ball joint separator or pickle fork. Most DIYers complete both sides in 2-4 hours.
Q: Should I replace both sides at once?
A: Yes — we strongly recommend replacing control arms in pairs. If one side has worn out, the other side is likely not far behind. Replacing both ensures even suspension geometry and predictable handling.
Q: Does this kit include the sway bar links?
A: This kit includes the front lower control arms only. Sway bar links and tie rod ends are sold separately. Check our store for complete suspension overhaul kits.
