Beck/Arnley Suspension Ball Joint P/N:101-8074
Keep steering response tight and front suspension travel smooth with the Beck/Arnley Suspension Ball Joint 101-5893, a front lower ball joint built as a direct replacement for a wide range of Mercedes-Benz cars. It pivots between the lower control arm and the steering knuckle, letting the wheel move up and down and turn while locating the suspension.
If a worn ball joint is the cause, signs that it may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven tire wear. Sold individually; because ball joints wear per side, inspect both and replace as directed by the service procedure for balanced handling. Diagnose the cause before ordering.
