Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS60509
Tighten up your front suspension with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint (MK90493), a direct-fit 2002-2005 Honda Civic ball joint that also fits the 2002-2003 Acura RSX. As the front lower suspension ball joint, it links the control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension move and the wheel pivot for steering while carrying load.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades aimed at added durability and performance, and are built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. Labor Saver designs, tools and hardware are intended to make installation faster and easier.
If a worn ball joint is behind clunking over bumps, wandering steering or uneven tire wear, this replaces the failed front lower joint on the listed applications.
