Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS10501
Keep your front end pivoting smoothly and your steering tight with the Mevotech Supreme Front Upper Ball Joint MK6136. This suspension ball joint is the pivoting joint that connects the front upper control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension travel and the wheel steer while carrying front-end loads. It's a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of 1973-1995 Chevrolet and GMC full-size trucks, vans and SUVs.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades for increased durability and performance, and are built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
Each joint is backed by extensive in-house and third-party durability testing. If a worn front upper ball joint is behind your clunking over bumps, wandering steering or uneven tire wear, this replaces it.
Fits Chevrolet G10 and G20 (1975-1995), C10 (1975-1986), C10 Suburban (1973-1986), K5 Blazer (1975-1982) and R1500 Suburban (1989-1991), plus GMC C1500 and C1500 Suburban (1979-1986), G1500 and G2500 (1979-1995), Jimmy (1975-1982) and R1500 Suburban (1987-1991) — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
