Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS90530
Keep your front suspension tight and your steering precise with the Mevotech Supreme Front Upper Ball Joint MK7242. This Dodge Dakota ball joint installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-1999 Dodge Dakota [All] and the 1998-1999 Dodge Durango [All], locating the front upper control arm to the steering knuckle while allowing the controlled movement your suspension and steering need.
This is a bolt-in unit with a threaded stud, a dust boot, and a non-adjustable design, engineered in-house by Mevotech for high-usage passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. Sold individually; the listed applications use two front upper ball joints, so order two and replace both sides together as a matched set for balanced results. Signs a ball joint may need replacing include clunking over the front end, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Country of origin: China.
