The upper control arm links the steering knuckle to the chassis and lets the wheel travel up and down, while the ball joint provides the pivot point for steering. Signs this assembly may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and play at the ball joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts, because worn tie rods, bushings and other components can produce similar symptoms.
