Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS10515
Help keep a tight, predictable front end with the Mevotech Supreme MK90663 front upper ball joint, a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2004 Nissan Frontier and 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra. As a suspension ball joint, it is the pivot that connects the control arm to the steering knuckle, so the wheel can steer and move with the suspension.
Mevotech develops its Supreme parts in-house and gives each application its own upgrades for durability and performance. The Supreme ball joint line is built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
Signs that a front upper ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and noticeable play at the joint. Have the front suspension inspected to confirm the cause before you replace any parts. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete fitment details.
