Keep the front-right suspension located and the wheel tracking true with the Mevotech Supreme control arm (CMK80722), a direct-fit replacement for the front right upper position on the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer, 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, and 2005-2010 Mercury Mountaineer. This Mevotech Supreme suspension control arm arrives with the ball joint pre-installed, positioning the steering knuckle while the integrated joint pivots through steering inputs and suspension travel.
Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, Mevotech Supreme control arms are built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. If a worn ball joint or a bent, corroded arm is behind clunking over bumps, a popping noise when turning, uneven tire wear, or loose, wandering steering, this Ford Explorer upper control arm replaces the failed unit. This listing covers the front right upper assembly; order the opposite side separately if you are replacing both.
What vehicles does the Mevotech Supreme CMK80722 fit?
It fits the front right upper position on the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer, 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, and 2005-2010 Mercury Mountaineer. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Is this an upper or lower Ford Explorer control arm?
This is the front right upper unit, so it does not fit the lower control arm position.
Does it come with the ball joint and hardware?
Yes. The ball joint is pre-installed, and it includes a 90-degree SAE grease fitting plus a part-specific nylon locking nut for installation.
What are signs my control arm or ball joint needs replacing?
Common signs include clunking over bumps, popping when turning, uneven tire wear, and loose or wandering steering. Diagnose the cause before replacing, as these can have other sources.
Is the CMK80722 a full control arm and ball joint assembly?
Yes. It ships as a complete upper control arm with the ball joint already installed, so you replace both in a single part.
