Mevotech TTX Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TXMS25520
Restore tight, precise steering to your Jeep and quiet those clunks with the Mevotech TTX Suspension Ball Joint (TXK3161T), a front lower ball joint engineered with cutting-edge technology to be one of the strongest, most durable joints on the market. Built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks, this is a direct-fit Jeep Wrangler ball joint that also covers the Cherokee, Comanche, Grand Cherokee, Grand Wagoneer, TJ and Wagoneer — see the fitment below and the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level list.
As the front lower ball joint, it pivots the steering knuckle and locates the suspension; play here shows up as clunking over the road, loose or wandering steering and uneven tire wear. If a worn front lower joint is the cause, this replaces it.
