• Corrosion protection: coated studs plus e-coated cast iron and steel construction help inhibit premature deterioration.
• Optimized bushings: designed for quiet operation and resistance to wear, salt, road grime and oils.
• Heat-treated strength: heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to help resist premature failure.
• Ball stud design: shaped to support fatigue life, compensating for sag and adding extra swing when needed.

This control arm and ball joint assembly ships with precision tolerances intended for straightforward installation and steering alignment. Signs the original may need replacing include clunking on acceleration or over bumps, uneven or accelerated tire wear, wandering steering, and play in the ball joint. If a worn front right lower arm or its ball joint is the cause, this MOOG unit replaces both in one piece.
