Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS101639
Locate the front wheel and let it pivot smoothly through every turn with the Mevotech Supreme control arm CMK80723, a front left upper control arm and ball joint assembly that installs as a direct-fit replacement for 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.
Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, this Mevotech Supreme suspension control arm is built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks, with Labor Saver designs that help make installation faster.
As a Ford Explorer control arm, it combines the stamped steel arm with its pressed-in ball joint in one serviceable part for the front left upper corner. If a worn arm bushing or ball joint is behind clunking, loose steering or uneven front tire wear, replacing this assembly renews the factory pivot points on that corner.
Does this Mevotech Supreme control arm fit my Ford Explorer?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer, 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac and 2005-2010 Mercury Mountaineer. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your engine.
Is this an upper or lower control arm?
CMK80723 is cataloged as the front left upper unit, so it fits the driver-side upper position on the listed vehicles.
What comes with this Ford Explorer upper control arm?
It arrives with the pressed-in ball joint, a 90-degree SAE grease fitting for servicing, and a part-specific nylon locking nut to speed the ball joint installation.
What are signs this control arm may need replacing?
Clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven front tire wear can be signs of a worn control arm bushing or ball joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Do I need to replace both sides?
This listing is for the front left upper part only, sold individually. Many technicians replace the matching right-side arm at the same time for balanced handling and even wear.
