Keep your classic Ford or Mercury's front end tight and precise with the Mevotech Supreme control arm and ball joint assembly, MPN CMS401188. This front upper control arm ships with the ball joint pre-installed, dropping in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications — it locates the front wheel while the integrated ball joint allows steering and suspension travel.
Fits: 1970-1977 Ford Maverick, 1967-1973 Ford Mustang, 1968-1971 Ford Ranchero, 1969-1971 Ford Custom, 1968-1970 Ford Fairlane, 1968 Ford Ranch Wagon, 1968-1971 Ford Torino, and 1968-1977 Mercury Comet. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Worn upper control arm bushings or a loose ball joint can cause clunking, uneven front tire wear, and wandering steering. If a failed front upper control arm or its ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces both in a single part.
