This pair replaces both front lower arms complete, with the ball joints already fitted, so the repair is a bolt-in swap. Not sure the ball joint is the cause? Our guide to \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/bad-ball-joint-symptoms\"\u003ebad ball joint symptoms\u003c\/a\u003e shows how to check before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAltima Front Lower Control Arm Pair with Ball Joints, 2007-2012\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Altima front lower control arm pair covers both sides of the car: one left (driver side) arm and one right (passenger side) arm, each supplied with its ball joint already pressed in and its rubber bushings fitted. The supplier lists the pair for the Nissan Altima from 2007 to 2012, all models except the Hybrid, and for the 2013 Altima two-door coupe only. Easy Life Markets sells the two arms together, so both front corners get the same parts on the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower arm is the main link between the front subframe and the wheel. Its two inner bushings let the suspension move up and down, and the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ball_joint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eball joint\u003c\/a\u003e at the outer end lets the steering knuckle turn. On an Altima of this age the bushings crack and the ball joint develops play, and you usually notice it first as a knock over bumps or a car that will not hold its alignment. Because these arms arrive as complete assemblies, the job is a straight swap: no press work on old bushings or ball joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is in the Package\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x front lower left (driver side) control arm with ball joint pre-pressed – K620195\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x front lower right (passenger side) control arm with ball joint pre-pressed – K620196\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier describes them as complete assemblies with ball joints and rubber bushings.
