Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS86142
Tighten up front-end steering and control wheel movement with the Mevotech Supreme control arm and ball joint assembly (P/N CMK90382). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the front left lower position on the 2003-2005 Kia Rio, locating the wheel and linking the steering knuckle to the chassis while its integrated ball joint lets the suspension and steering pivot together.
Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, this Mevotech Supreme lower control arm is designed for high-usage passenger and commercial vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. As a combined control arm and ball joint assembly, it replaces both the arm and its ball joint in one unit — a convenient fix if a worn joint or torn boot on your original Kia Rio control arm is causing clunking, uneven tire wear, or loose, wandering steering. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
