Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS86142
Keep the front suspension tight and the steering true with the Mevotech Supreme control arm CMS9703, a front left lower control arm and ball joint assembly built to drop into a wide range of classic Chevrolet and GMC work trucks and vans. It fits applications such as the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C20, 1973-1986 Chevrolet C20 Suburban, 1975-1999 Chevrolet P30, 1979-1998 GMC P3500 and 1987-1991 GMC R3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered models and years.
Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, the Mevotech Supreme line is built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
The arm locates the wheel and lets it move through its travel and steering arc while the integrated ball joint provides the pivoting connection. If a worn arm or ball joint is behind clunking, wandering steering or uneven tire wear, this assembly replaces it.
