Front Left Lower Control Arm with Ball Joint for 2004-2022 TITAN

In this review of the TRQ front left lower control arm with ball joint, the bottom line is straightforward: it is a practical OE replacement for owners of compatible Nissan and Infiniti trucks who need a direct-fit suspension arm without custom work. The reviewer found it best for people replacing a worn or damaged front driver side lower control arm, praising the matching fit and straightforward installation on 2004-2022 TITANs and related Armada, Titan, Pathfinder and QX56 models. It is a useful repair part for routine suspension maintenance or collision repair where an OE-style replacement is required.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed to match the factory mounting points so installation typically requires no modification and aligns with original geometry.
• OE Replacement Assembly: Combines the lower control arm and ball joint into one assembly to simplify the repair and reduce installation time.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: Clearly lists compatibility for 2004-2015 Nissan Titan and Armada, 2017-24 Titan, 2004-10 Infiniti QX56 and 2004 Pathfinder, helping buyers confirm fit before purchase.
• Steel Construction: Built from steel for durable support of suspension loads and to meet the basic strength profile of the original part.
• Included Bushings: Arrives with bushings installed to avoid sourcing separate components and to speed the replacement process.

Who It's For

The control arm is aimed at owners and independent mechanics working on Nissan Titan, Armada, Pathfinder and Infiniti QX56 models who want a direct-fit, OE-style replacement that mirrors factory reference numbers. It is especially appropriate for those doing conservative suspension repairs who prefer swapping a full control arm with an installed ball joint rather than pressing in a new ball joint.

Those who should look elsewhere include drivers needing a performance-tuned upgrade, adjustable suspension links, or a greaseable ball joint, since this assembly is non-adjustable and non-greaseable. Also consider an OEM dealer part if you require manufacturer warranty coverage or an exact factory-sourced box and packaging.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Direct-fit construction reduces installation fuss and generally matches the original mounting locations.
• Comes as a combined control arm and ball joint assembly, saving time over separate component replacement.
• Steel construction and included bushings provide a ready-to-install unit for common repair needs.

Cons

• Ball joint is press-in and non-greaseable, which some users reported as a weak point over long-term use.
• Not intended for performance suspension upgrades or adjustable alignment setups.

Specifications

Our Verdict

The TRQ front left lower control arm with ball joint is a solid value for owners repairing compatible Nissan and Infiniti trucks who need a direct-fit OE-style replacement. It saves time by arriving with bushings and the ball joint assembled and generally matches original fit and finish.
