Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS50522
Keep steering tight and front-end movement controlled with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint (MK7392). This suspension ball joint pivots the control arm against the steering knuckle so the wheel can steer and travel while staying located, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2000-2004 Dodge Dakota and 2000-2003 Dodge Durango. It is a front upper unit. If a worn front upper ball joint is behind your clunking, steering wander or uneven tire wear, this is the Dodge Dakota ball joint that replaces it.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades and backed by extensive in-house and third-party durability testing. It suits high-usage passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. For a 2001 Dodge Dakota ball joints job, replacing the front upper ball joints on both sides together is good practice for even, predictable steering. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
