As a front lower ball joint, it forms the flexible pivot that lets the steering knuckle turn and move with the suspension. Mevotech's Labor Saver™ approach pairs the joint with part-specific hardware intended to make installation faster and easier. Each design goes through extensive in-house and third-party durability testing for strength.
- Superior toughness: Sintered bearings are designed for longer-lasting performance.
- Simple to service: A 180-degree SAE grease fitting is included, so you can grease the joint at routine service.
- A faster fit: A part-specific nylon locking nut is provided to speed up installation.
- Resists corrosion: A protective surface treatment helps prevent rust buildup.
A lower ball joint may need replacing if you notice clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear or play at the joint. Other parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. Follow the vehicle service information for installation and torque specifications.
