Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint P/N:BJ85225RD
Looking for a Dorman ball joint that's built for real work? The Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint BJ92145RD is a front lower ball joint from Dorman's RD ("rugged duty") chassis line, engineered specifically for severe-duty service. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer, 2002-2009 GMC Envoy, 2004-2007 Buick Rainier, 2005-2009 Saab 9-7X and more — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
As a Dorman suspension ball joint, this front lower joint connects the lower control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can pivot and travel while carrying suspension load. Signs a ball joint may need replacing include clunking from the front suspension, uneven tire wear, or loose, wandering steering; if a worn joint is the cause, this replaces it.
