Keep the steering tight and the front end planted with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint (MK3185) — a rugged front lower Jeep Wrangler ball joint engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades for high-usage passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler, and 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK. A ball joint links the control arm to the steering knuckle and pivots as the wheels steer and the suspension travels; if a worn joint is behind clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, this replaces it.
Quick, easy installation: secures to the vehicle with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin provided.
Simple to service: a 90-degree SAE grease fitting is included to make lubrication a snap.
Tighter grip: knurling promotes a snugger fit between connecting points to help avoid distortion and corrosion.
Rigorously tested: extensive in-house and third-party durability testing backs its strength and performance.
Part of Mevotech's Labor Saver™ program of designs, tools and hardware built to make installations faster and easier.
