ADJ138626 Blue Print Ball Joint

This joint basically allows your suspension to move up and down while still letting you steer. It’s a spherical bearing, so it pivots. It connects the control arm to the steering knuckle, giving you that range of motion. Think of it like your shoulder joint – it needs to move freely in multiple directions, but also be strong enough to handle the weight of the vehicle. The bolts and lock nuts are, naturally, what hold it securely in place. It’s a core component of your front suspension, and sometimes rear too. It’s what allows the wheel to move up and down over bumps, while you still maintain control of the steering. It’s part of a whole system – control arms, struts, steering rack – but the ball joint is a key connection point. It takes a lot of stress, being right there handling the weight and movement. Well, if these wear out, things get pretty unstable. You’ll notice if one goes bad because you might hear clunking noises, especially when going over bumps. Steering can become loose or wander, and it could even cause tire wear issues. They’re safety critical, really. A broken ball joint can lead to a loss of control, so it’s important to replace them when they're showing signs of wear. You can find these parts, and a lot of others, over at Fixparts Online if you’re looking for a good source. They’re not super complicated to replace if you’re comfortable with suspension work, but if not, best to leave it to a professional. Convenience at its best: Ball Joint with Bolts and Lock Nuts (MPN ADJ138626) includes a 12-month warranty!
