A front lower ball joint is the pivot between the lower control arm and the steering knuckle. It lets the wheel travel up and down with the suspension while turning with the steering. Dorman precision-engineers this replacement to match the design and dimensions of the original component.
A ball joint may need replacing if you notice clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, excess play at the wheel, or uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the suspension before ordering. If a worn ball joint is the cause, this part replaces it. Follow the vehicle service information for installation, and have the wheel alignment checked afterward.
