Keep the front end tight and the steering responsive with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint MK9482, a direct-fit replacement for the front upper position on the 1986-1995 Toyota 4Runner, the 1986-1995 Toyota Pickup and the 1993-1998 Toyota T100. It is a pivoting joint that links the upper control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension travel up and down while the wheel pivots to steer.
- Quick, easy installation: secures to the vehicle with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin provided.
- Keeps water and debris out: a pre-installed dust boot shields the internal components from contaminants.
- Resists corrosion: a protective surface treatment helps prevent rust build-up.
- Rigorously tested: extensive in-house and third-party durability testing.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades and built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. If a worn joint is behind clunking or popping over bumps and while turning, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, replacing the front upper joint addresses those signs. A worn 1986-1995 Toyota 4Runner ball joint is a common wear item — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for full engine-level fitment.
