Replace a worn front upper pivot with the Mevotech Supreme MK704 ball joint, engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades aimed at increased durability and performance. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1963-1972 Dodge Dart, 1961-1962 Dodge Lancer and 1970-1972 Plymouth Duster. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
This suspension ball joint is the pivot between the upper control arm and the steering knuckle, letting the wheel travel with the suspension and turn with the steering. Mevotech builds its Supreme ball joints for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
- Hardware provided: A part-specific castle nut and cotter pin come with the joint to secure it to the vehicle.
- Easy to service: A 90-degree SAE grease fitting is included for routine lubrication.
- Corrosion resistance: A protective surface treatment helps prevent rust buildup.
- Contaminant protection: The pre-installed dust boot helps keep water and debris away from the internal components.
Each design goes through extensive in-house and third-party durability testing. Signs a ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Inspect the front suspension to confirm the cause before replacing parts.
