A ball joint is the pivot that links the control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the wheel steer while the suspension travels. This suspension ball joint mounts in the front lower position and is precision-engineered and rigorously tested as a reliable replacement for the original unit.
Signs a ball joint may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, excess play at the wheel and uneven tire wear. If a worn front lower ball joint is the cause, 533-194 replaces it. Diagnose the suspension first, and follow the vehicle service information for installation and alignment.
