Ball Joint

Ball joints are a critical component of a vehicle's suspension and steering system, connecting the control arms to the steering knuckles. These joints allow for smooth and controlled movement as the suspension cycles and the vehicle steers. Typically found in both front and rear suspension setups of passenger cars and commercial vehicles, ball joints enable the wheels to move up and down while simultaneously allowing steering. They consist of a ball and socket design that provides rotational movement, and are built to withstand significant loads and stresses. Examples within our Suspension & Steering > Arms & Joints > Ball Joint category include MAN MPN 36.74965-0033, LEMFÖRDER MPN 3475601, and Febi FEBI26045. Regular inspection and replacement of worn ball joints are essential for maintaining vehicle safety and handling.
