Market analysis
How much does a used Subaru Impreza control arm cost?
Asking prices for a used Subaru Impreza control arm are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 127% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $125.
Model year matters too: 2020 units carry the lowest median at $55, while 2024 tops the table at $174. Parts from 2017–2023 are interchangeable, so if the 2020 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Subaru Impreza sits 48% below the Toyota 4Runner ($193), 44% below the Mercedes S Class ($180), and level with the Mercedes E Class ($100) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used control arm: what to check
- Inspect ball joint boot and stud play: Check for torn rubber dust boots, cracked grease seals, or lateral movement in the ball joint stud when flexed with a pry bar.
- Check rubber bushing integrity: Look for dry-rotted, torn, or fluid-leaking hydraulic suspension bushings where the arm mounts to the subframe.
- Verify structural straightness against factory specs: Compare the arm against original dimensions to spot subtle bends caused by curb strikes or suspension impacts.
- Confirm ball joint attachment design: Determine whether the arm uses a bolt-on ball joint or an integrated press-fit socket to anticipate future maintenance needs.
- Torque bushing bolts at ride height only: Tightening subframe pivot bolts while the vehicle is raised on jacks twists rubber bushings and causes premature tearing.
