$53.99

Keep your front suspension pivoting smoothly with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint 533-198. This front lower ball joint links the lower control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the wheel steer and travel through its arc while helping support and locate the front suspension. It installs as a direct-fit replacement ball joint for the Chevy Silverado 1500 and drops in on the 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500, and many more GM trucks, SUVs and vans — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Steel and rubber construction: built to strict standards from sturdy steel with a polychloroprene dust boot and a polymer bearing.
  • Greaseable design: fitted with a zerk grease fitting for periodic relubrication during service.
  • Tapered, threaded press-in stud: a tapered stud with 16 mm threads (1.5 mm pitch) presses into the housing; a ball-joint press tool is normally required for installation.
  • Premium replacement: precision-engineered and tested to fit and perform like the original on the listed applications; includes one mounting nut. Country of origin: Thailand.

Worn ball joints can show up as clunking over the front end, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear — if a failed lower ball joint is the cause, this replaces it. Each listed application uses two; sold individually, so order two to replace the front lower pair.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is this ball joint located on my Silverado or Sierra?

It's the front lower ball joint, connecting the lower control arm to the steering knuckle on the listed 1999-2006 Chevrolet and GMC trucks, SUVs and vans.

Is the Dorman 533-198 ball joint greaseable?

Yes. It's a greaseable design fitted with a zerk grease fitting, allowing periodic relubrication during normal service.

What comes in the package?

The package contains the ball joint, a zerk grease fitting, and one mounting nut. Bushings, washers, a cotter pin and a castle nut are not included.

Do I need to replace both ball joints on my Tahoe?

Each listed application uses two. This listing is for one, so order two to do the front lower pair; replacing both sides together is good practice for balanced wear.

How is this ball joint installed?

The tapered stud secures with the included nut and the joint presses into the housing, so a ball-joint press tool is normally required. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct torque specs.
