Beck/Arnley Suspension Ball Joint P/N:101-7363
Keep your SAAB 9-5's front suspension tight and its steering precise with the Beck/Arnley Suspension Ball Joint 101-5246. This front lower ball joint installs as a direct replacement for the 2002-2009 SAAB 9-5, engineered to match the original part's form, fit, and function. The ball joint forms the pivoting connection between the lower control arm and the steering knuckle, letting the wheel move up and down over bumps while turning with your steering input.
Clunking or popping over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven tire wear can be signs the original ball joint may need replacing — if a worn ball joint is the cause, this direct-fit unit replaces it. Diagnose the cause before ordering to confirm the ball joint is the issue.
