Keep your front suspension pivoting smoothly with the Mevotech TTX ball joint, part number TXK6292. It is a front upper joint built for high-usage vehicles. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500, 1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500 and 1995-2000 Chevrolet Tahoe.

Mevotech's TTX line is made for commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. This Mevotech TTX suspension ball joint links the upper control arm to the steering knuckle. That gives the wheel a pivot point for steering while the suspension moves up and down. Labor Saver designs and the included hardware are intended to make installation faster and easier.

• Maximum toughness: Patented sintered bearings are designed for longer-lasting performance. An application-specific ball stud system uses a larger sphere.
• Quick installation: The joint secures to the vehicle with the supplied part-specific slotted castle nut and easy-snap cotter pin.
• Simple to service: A 180-degree SAE grease fitting is included to make servicing easier.
• Stronger build: A thicker, stronger flange helps prevent deformation during installation. Pre-applied Nylok thread adhesive helps keep fasteners secure and resistant to vibration.

Signs that a front upper ball joint may need replacing include:

• clunking or knocking over bumps
• loose or wandering steering
• uneven tire wear
• noticeable play in the joint

Have the suspension inspected to confirm the cause before replacing parts. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac applications and engine details.
