Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS901316
Steer confidently and keep your front suspension located with the Mevotech Supreme control arm and ball joint assembly (CMS90131), a front lower unit engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades for high-usage passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2002 Kia Sportage — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail. The control arm locates the front lower suspension and its integrated ball joint provides the pivoting connection to the steering knuckle, so worn, loose, or cracked originals can bring clunking, uneven tire wear, and vague steering.
If a failed control arm or ball joint is the cause of your symptoms, this Mevotech Supreme suspension control arm replaces it. Replacing the matching side is good practice for balanced handling.
