Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint P/N:MS10598
Give your front end a solid, serviceable pivot point with the Mevotech Supreme ball joint MS40547, a front upper joint that links the control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can travel with the suspension and turn with the steering. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2003-2011 Ford Crown Victoria, 2003-2011 Lincoln Town Car and 2003-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
Mevotech engineers its Supreme parts in-house, adding application-specific upgrades aimed at increased durability and performance. The line is built for high-usage passenger and commercial vehicles, fleets and working trucks.
Signs a suspension ball joint may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and noticeable play at the joint. If a worn front upper ball joint is the cause, MS40547 replaces it. Inspect the related steering and suspension components as well, and have the alignment checked after installation.
