2009-2014 Maxima Lower Control Arms – Aluminum Front Pair with Ball Joints

The 2009-2014 Maxima lower control arms on this page are a front left and front right pair, made of aluminum and supplied with ball joints and rubber bushings. The supplier lists them for the Nissan Maxima from 2009 to 2014, all models. The left arm carries reference numbers 545019N00B, 545019N00A and K622059, and the right arm 545009N00B, 545009N00A and K622054. Easy Life Markets offers both arms as one set, packed together in a single carton.

The Maxima of these years is a fairly heavy front-wheel-drive saloon with a strong V6, and the front lower arms feel all of it. Each arm holds the bottom of the steering knuckle through a ball joint and pivots on bushings at the subframe. Hard launches, heavy braking and potholes all load those bushings and that joint. When they wear, you get knocks over rough surfaces, steering that is less sharp than it used to be and tyres that wear unevenly. Because the ball joint is part of the arm, the usual repair is to replace the whole assembly.

Included in the Set

1 x front lower left control arm – reference 545019N00B, 545019N00A, K622059
1 x front lower right control arm – reference 545009N00B, 545009N00A, K622054

Mounting bolts, nuts and fitting instructions are not listed as included by the supplier.

Compatibility

The supplier lists this pair for:

Nissan Maxima, 2009–2014, all models

These years are the seventh-generation Maxima. The later 2016-on car uses different arms, and we list those separately, so make sure you are on the right page for your model year. To check before ordering:

Compare part numbers. Nissan part numbers beginning 54501 are the left arm and 54500 the right in this listing. If your dealer or catalogue gives 54501-9N00A, 54501-9N00B, 54500-9N00A or 54500-9N00B for your car, they match the references here.
Run your VIN. A Nissan parts counter or an online catalogue will confirm the lower arm number for your exact car in a minute.
Look at your old arms. Compare the shape, the ball joint position and the two bushing mounts with the photos below.
Ask if in doubt. Get in touch with your VIN and we will help you check.

Why Aluminum Arms

These arms are aluminum, not pressed steel. An aluminum arm weighs less than a steel arm of the same strength, and less weight hanging off the suspension helps the wheel follow the road. Aluminum does not rust in the way steel does either, although it can corrode where it touches steel fasteners, so a smear of anti-seize on the bolt shanks is worth the minute it takes. One caution: aluminum arms should never be heated or hammered to free a stuck ball joint taper. Use the right separator.

Signs Your Maxima Needs New Lower Arms

A dull knock from the front on broken tarmac or over speed bumps
The steering wheel pulling one way under hard acceleration more than it used to
Vibration through the wheel under braking
A front tyre worn on its inside edge
Torn rubber at the rear bushing, or a ball joint boot that has split and lost its grease
An alignment shop telling you the car will not hold its settings

None of these proves the arms are at fault on its own. Have the front end checked on a lift with a pry bar first, so you know whether the play is in the ball joint, the bushings or somewhere else.

Installation Tips

Work on a level floor with the car on stands and the front wheels off.
Undo the ball joint pinch bolt or nut at the knuckle first, then the inner mounting bolts.
Fit the new arm loosely, lower the car onto its wheels or raise the hub to ride height with a jack, and only then tighten the bushing bolts fully.
Torque everything to the figures in the Nissan service manual. Do not guess on suspension bolts.
Replace any nuts the manual marks as single use.
Get a wheel alignment done afterwards, and re-check the bolts after the first few hundred kilometres.

The lower arm is a safety-critical part. If you do not have a torque wrench, stands and some experience with suspension work, please have a qualified mechanic fit the pair.

Who These Arms Suit

They suit Maxima owners dealing with front-end knocks or a failed inspection on ball joint play, home mechanics who want both sides in one order, and garages that would rather fit complete arms than press bushings.

Common Questions

Do the arms come with ball joints? Yes. The supplier lists them as lower control arms with ball joints, with rubber bushings fitted.

Are they genuine Nissan parts? No. This is an unbranded aftermarket pair. The Nissan numbers are cross-references that tell you which original part each arm replaces. It is not a genuine part of the vehicle maker.

Will they fit a 2016 or newer Maxima? No. The supplier lists 2009–2014 only.
