Mevotech TTX Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TXK5335
Restore tight, precise steering with the Mevotech TTX ball joint (TXK500007), a front lower suspension ball joint engineered for high-usage trucks and SUVs. It fits the 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, the 2007-2014 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon, and the 2007-2014 Cadillac Escalade, among other GM full-size trucks and SUVs — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application list and engine details.
The ball joint locates the lower control arm and steering knuckle while allowing suspension travel and steering motion. A worn unit may show up as clunking on acceleration or over uneven roads, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear — if the original front lower ball joint is the cause, this replaces it. Replace both sides together for balanced steering.
Does this fit a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
Yes. This front lower ball joint fits the 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, including 2008 models. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact fit for your vehicle.
Is this a front or rear ball joint?
It is cataloged as a front lower suspension ball joint for the listed GM trucks and SUVs.
Does it come with the nut and cotter pin?
Yes. It ships with a part-specific slotted castle nut, a snap cotter pin, and pre-applied nylok thread adhesive to help keep the fastener secure.
Can I grease this ball joint?
Yes. It includes a 180-degree SAE grease fitting, so you can re-lubricate it during routine service.
Should I replace both ball joints at once?
Replacing the left and right ball joints together as a matched pair is recommended for even wear and balanced steering, though each unit is sold individually.
