Replace a worn front lower pivot with the Mevotech Supreme Ball Joint MK5335, a front lower joint that connects the control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can steer and move with the suspension. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1997-2005 Chevrolet Blazer, 1997-2005 GMC Jimmy and 1997-2004 Chevrolet S10, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
Mevotech engineers its Supreme parts in-house, adding application-specific upgrades aimed at durability and performance. The Supreme ball joint line is built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks, and its Labor Saver designs, tools and hardware are intended to make installation faster and easier.
Signs a ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and noticeable play at the joint. Because other front-end parts can cause similar symptoms, inspect the suspension to confirm the cause before replacing parts.
