Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS50588
Keep the front suspension pivoting smoothly and steering tight with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint MK6273, a front lower ball joint that serves as the pivoting connection between the lower control arm and the steering knuckle so the wheel can turn and travel through suspension movement. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on many vehicles, among them the 1976-1987 Chevrolet Chevette, 1984-1987 Pontiac Fiero and 1981-1987 Pontiac T1000 — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level fitment.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades and validated through extensive in-house and third-party durability testing. If a worn front lower ball joint is the cause of clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven front tire wear, this replaces it.
