Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint P/N:539-881
Reconnect the upper control arm to the steering knuckle with the Dorman - OE Solutions ball joint 539-908, a front upper replacement for the 1986-1995 Toyota 4Runner, 1986-1995 Toyota Pickup and 1993-1998 Toyota T100. Dorman describes this suspension ball joint as precision-engineered and rigorously tested to serve as a dependable replacement for the original equipment on these vehicles.
A ball joint is the pivot point that lets the knuckle turn with the steering and move with the suspension. If a worn joint is behind clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, this front upper joint replaces it. Diagnose the cause first, because other steering and suspension parts can produce the same signs. Whether you are replacing a 1986-1995 Toyota 4Runner ball joint or the matching joint on a 1986-1995 Toyota Pickup or 1993-1998 Toyota T100, the same part number applies. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full application details.
