Market analysis

How much does a used Toyota Highlander control arm cost?

Asking prices for a used Toyota Highlander 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 100% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $150.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, LH, lists at a $100 median, while RH commands $172, a 72% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $75, while 2022 tops the table at $220. Parts from 2008–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 13 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Toyota Highlander sits 22% below the Toyota 4Runner ($193), 17% below the Mercedes S Class ($180), and 50% above 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

  1. 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.
  2. Check rubber bushing integrity: Look for dry-rotted, torn, or fluid-leaking hydraulic suspension bushings where the arm mounts to the subframe.
  3. Verify structural straightness against factory specs: Compare the arm against original dimensions to spot subtle bends caused by curb strikes or suspension impacts.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
