Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint P/N:533-362
Keep the front suspension pivoting smoothly and holding the wheel where it belongs with the Dorman OE Solutions 533-264 ball joint, a front upper ball joint that links the control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can steer and travel with the suspension. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma, 2000-2006 Toyota Tundra and 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A worn joint can let play develop in the front end. Signs this suspension ball joint may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the joint for play first. If the upper ball joint is the cause, this part replaces it. For a 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma ball joint replacement or work on any listed Toyota, follow the vehicle service information and have the alignment checked afterward.
