Bring firm, controlled handling back to your suspension with the Mevotech TTX Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly (P/N: CTXK80398). This front left lower unit drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2012 Ford Escape, 2001-2011 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2011 Mercury Mariner — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details on the listed applications.
Stronger build: a stamped steel control arm with a structure change for added durability, engineered for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
Maximum toughness: patented sintered bearings for longer-lasting performance.
High-performance design: upgraded rubber bushings with knurling that secures the control arm bushing to the sub-frame, plus an application-specific ball stud system with a larger sphere.
Simple to service: includes 180-degree and 90-degree SAE grease fittings, with an application-specific pinch bolt and locking nut provided.
The ball joint uses a thicker, stronger flange designed to prevent deformation during installation, pre-applied nylok thread adhesive to keep fasteners secure and vibration resistant, and a Repel-TEK surface treatment that helps prevent rust build-up for longer life. Worn control arm bushings or a failing ball joint can cause clunking on acceleration, deceleration, or shifting, uneven tire wear, and loose steering — if that is the cause, this assembly replaces those components.
