Our review of this Front Right Upper Control Arm with Ball Joint finds it best suited for owners of 2003-2009 Nissan 350Z and 2003-2007 Infiniti G35 models who need a direct-fit OE replacement. The bottom line: this TRQ-compatible assembly installs like an original, restores steering geometry and front suspension feel quickly, and matches factory reference numbers so fitment checks are straightforward. It is a practical, value-oriented replacement when the factory arm or ball joint shows wear, and the single biggest reason to buy is that it is a vehicle-specific, bolt-in OE replacement designed to simplify repair.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement to bolt into the front passenger upper location without modification for 2003-2009 Nissan 350Z and 2003-2007 Infiniti G35 models.
• Complete Assembly: Includes the control arm and machined ball joint so you replace the worn parts at once and avoid separate sourcing.
• Aluminum Construction: The control arm material is aluminum to provide a balance of strength and reduced unsprung weight compared with heavier steel units.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: Fitment guidance and multiple OE reference numbers are provided in the listing to help confirm compatibility before purchase.
• Bushings Included: Comes with installed bushings so the assembly is ready for installation and reduces time in the shop or driveway.

Who It's For

This part is intended for owners and independent mechanics working on rear-wheel-drive variants of the Nissan 350Z and Infiniti G35 front passenger upper control arm. It is a good choice for people who want a relatively straightforward, bolt-in fix that restores alignment points and steering response without swapping separate components.

Those seeking a heavy-duty performance upgrade or an adjustable camber arm should look elsewhere, as this assembly is a direct OE-style replacement focused on fit and function rather than aftermarket adjustability or reinforced competition duty.
