- Pivoting joint: connects the upper control arm to the steering knuckle, allowing the suspension to travel and the wheel to steer.
- Front upper position: cataloged as the front upper ball joint for the listed applications.
- Signs it may need replacing: clunking or knocking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear.
If a worn front upper ball joint is the cause of those symptoms, this unit replaces it. Sold individually; a vehicle uses one per side, so order two if you plan to service both sides together.
