Replace a loose or worn front upper pivot with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Ball Joint MS50548. This front upper ball joint is a direct-fit replacement for the 1973-1978 Cadillac Eldorado and the 1973-1978 Oldsmobile Toronado. It links the upper control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can travel with the suspension and turn with the steering.

Mevotech engineers its Supreme parts in-house, with application-specific upgrades aimed at increased durability and performance.

  • Quick installation: Secure the ball joint to the vehicle with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin provided.
  • Simple servicing: An included 90-degree SAE grease fitting makes routine lubrication easy.
  • Corrosion resistance: A protective surface treatment helps prevent rust build-up.
  • Contaminant protection: A pre-installed dust boot is designed to keep water and debris away from the internal components.

Mevotech puts its Supreme ball joints through extensive in-house and third-party durability testing for performance and strength.

A ball joint may need replacing if you notice any of these signs:

  • Clunking or knocking over bumps
  • Loose or wandering steering
  • Uneven tire wear
  • Noticeable play at the joint

If a worn upper ball joint is the cause, MS50548 replaces it. Have the suspension inspected to confirm the source before replacing. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific fitment details.
