Keep steering response tight and your suspension articulating freely with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint 540-117. It installs as a direct replacement for the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2006-2010 Jeep Commander, 2007-2012 Dodge Nitro, and 2008-2013 Jeep Liberty (all engines), so you can renew a single worn joint instead of swapping the whole assembly.
A ball joint links the control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension move up and down while the wheel steers. A worn joint may show up as clunking or knocking over bumps, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear; if a failed ball joint is the cause, this replaces it.
- Construction: steel body with a polymer bearing.
- Dust boot: polychloroprene, helping keep out dirt and moisture.
- Stud: threaded, tapered stud with a 14 mm thread diameter, 1.5 mm thread pitch, and 12 mm wrench size.
- Service: non-greaseable design with no grease fitting; a ball joint press tool is normally required for installation.
Precision-engineered and tested to the design and dimensions of the original component. Ships with one nut; bushings, washers, and a cotter pin are not included. Sold individually; the listed applications use two, so order 2 for a complete replacement. Country of origin: Thailand.
