Nissan Rogue Select Control Arm Kits

Nissan Rogue Select Control arm kits

Control arm kits for the Nissan Rogue Select start at $180.95 and AutoBuffy stocks 30 options from Mevotech Supreme, Mevotech Original Grade, and Suspensia. A control arm connects the wheel hub to the frame, keeping your wheels properly aligned through every bump and turn. When the arm, bushings, or ball joint wear out, handling deteriorates and tire wear accelerates — making replacement critical for safety.

Signs your Nissan Rogue Select needs new control arms

  • Clunking or knocking noise from the front suspension when hitting bumps or turning
  • Steering wheel vibrates or shudders at highway speeds or during braking
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear on the inner or outer edge of the front tires
  • Vehicle pulls to one side while driving on a straight, level road
  • Excessive play or looseness felt in the steering wheel at center
  • Front end wanders or feels vague when changing lanes, even slightly

Which control arm kit should you buy for your Nissan Rogue Select?

The main decisions are whether to replace just the arm, the full kit with pre-installed ball joint and bushings, or the upper versus lower position. A complete kit costs more upfront but eliminates the need to press in separate components and ensures all wear points are addressed at the same time.

Lower Control Arm Kit

Replacing control arms on a Nissan Rogue Select

Moderate⏱ 1.5–3 hours per sideFloor jack and jack standsSocket and wrench set (metric and SAE)Torque wrenchBall joint separator or pickle forkRubber mallet

Raise and safely support the Nissan Rogue Select, then remove the wheel to access the control arm mounting bolts and ball joint stud. Disconnect the ball joint from the steering knuckle using a separator tool, unbolt the arm from the frame, and reverse the process with the new kit. Torque all fasteners with the suspension at ride height, not full droop, then schedule an alignment before driving.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to replace control arms on a Nissan Rogue Select?
Parts alone start at $180.95 for a single arm kit on the Nissan Rogue Select. A full front set — both lower arms or upper and lower combined — typically runs higher. Add shop labor if you're not doing it yourself, which can range from one to three hours depending on the configuration and vehicle access.
Can I replace just one control arm on my Nissan Rogue Select, or do I need to do both sides?
You can replace a single side if the other arm inspects clean, but most experienced technicians recommend replacing both sides at the same time. Control arms wear at similar rates, and replacing in pairs keeps suspension geometry balanced side to side, avoiding a return visit and a second alignment charge within a short period.
Do I need a wheel alignment after replacing control arms on a Nissan Rogue Select?
Yes — a four-wheel alignment is required after any control arm replacement on the Nissan Rogue Select. Removing and reinstalling a control arm changes the suspension geometry, including camber and caster settings. Driving without an alignment after this repair will cause rapid, uneven tire wear and potentially unsafe handling characteristics.
How long do control arms last on a Nissan Rogue Select?
Control arm service life varies widely depending on road conditions and driving habits. On smooth roads, arms can last many years with no issues. In areas with potholes, road salt, or heavy towing, bushings and ball joints wear significantly faster. Inspect them whenever tires are rotated or if any suspension symptoms appear.
What is included in a control arm kit versus just a control arm?
A bare control arm ships without a ball joint or bushings pressed in, requiring separate sourcing and a press to install. A control arm kit includes the arm with the ball joint and bushings pre-assembled and ready to bolt on. Kits cost more per unit but save labor time and guarantee component compatibility from the start.
Is replacing control arms on a Nissan Rogue Select a DIY job?
Control arm replacement is manageable for a confident DIYer with a floor jack, jack stands, basic hand tools, and a torque wrench. The main challenge is disconnecting the ball joint and pressing out old bushings if the kit is not pre-assembled. A complete pre-assembled kit makes the job substantially more straightforward for home mechanics.
