Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:CMS501277
Keep the front suspension tight and the steering precise with the Mevotech Supreme control arm CMK80389, a front right lower control arm and ball joint assembly that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, and 1997-2000 Mercury Mystique (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details). This front right lower unit locates the wheel, controls suspension travel, and its integrated ball joint provides the pivot for steering and ride motion.
Worn control arm bushings or a loose ball joint can show up as clunking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear. If a failed front right lower arm or ball joint is the cause, this Mevotech Supreme suspension control arm replaces both in one assembly.

Does the Mevotech Supreme lower control arm CMK80389 fit my Ford Contour?
Yes. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2000 Ford Contour, along with the 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar and 1997-2000 Mercury Mystique. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.
What position on the vehicle is this control arm?
This is the front right (passenger-side) lower control arm. Confirm it matches the corner you need before ordering.
Is mounting hardware included?
Yes. Mevotech's Labor Saver™ design includes the essential mounting hardware to help make the installation faster and easier.
What are the signs my control arm or ball joint may need replacing?
Common signs include clunking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear. Have the cause diagnosed, as these symptoms can have other sources.
Should I replace the control arm on both sides?
This listing is for one front right lower assembly. Replacing the matching left-side arm at the same time is a common best practice for balanced, even front-suspension performance.
