Mevotech TTX Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TXK3185

Keep your steering tight and your suspension controlled with the Mevotech TTX Suspension Ball Joint (TXK3185), a front lower ball joint built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler, and 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications.

• Maximum toughness: patented sintered bearings for longer-lasting performance.
• Superior seal: the Integri-Boot design is built into the assembly to lock out moisture and contaminants.
• Easier installation: a custom-designed adapter ring plus a part-specific slotted castle nut and snap cotter pin are provided; a 90-degree and plug SAE grease fitting is included for servicing.
• Application-specific ball stud: a larger sphere design and a thicker, stronger flange help prevent deformation during installation, while knurling ensures a snugger fit and pre-applied nylok thread adhesive keeps fasteners secure.

A ball joint locates the steering knuckle and lets the suspension pivot and steer. Worn signs may include clunking on acceleration or over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. If a failed front lower ball joint is the cause, this replaces it. Replace both sides as a matched pair for balanced handling.
