Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS90530
Keep the front suspension tight and precisely located with the Mevotech Supreme Dodge Dakota ball joint, MK80605. This front lower suspension ball joint drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2010 Dodge Dakota, 2006-2009 Mitsubishi Raider, and 2011 Ram Dakota — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, it's built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
Extensive in-house and third-party durability testing backs its strength. A worn ball joint may show up as clunking, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear — if the original joint is the cause, this MK80605 replaces it. Sold individually; the front lower joints wear as a pair, so inspect and replace both sides together for balanced results.
