Description

Renew the front suspension pivot on your Mercedes with the DORMAN ball joint 538-773, a direct-fit front lower ball joint. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2003-2005 Mercedes-Benz ML350, 2002-2005 Mercedes-Benz ML500 and 1998-2003 Mercedes-Benz ML320; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. It connects the control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension articulate and the wheel steer while locating the assembly. Worn ball joints can produce clunking or popping over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear — if the original joint is the cause, this replaces it.

Durable construction: built from steel with a rubber element and a polymer bearing.
Tapered threaded stud: a press-in housing with a tapered, threaded stud; a ball-joint press tool is typically required for installation.
Sealed against contamination: includes a polychloroprene dust boot.
Ships with hardware: supplied with one nut and a locking washer.

This is a premium-grade, non-greaseable joint. Each listed application uses two; this listing is for one, and replacing both sides together as a matched pair is recommended. Country of origin: China.
