49395236 Corteco Ball Joint

Basically, a ball joint is what connects your suspension to your vehicle. It’s a spherical bearing – think of it like your shoulder joint, allowing for a lot of movement in multiple directions. It lets your wheel move up and down and steer left and right, all while keeping everything connected. They allow for pivoting action, and let the suspension work properly. It's a key part of the front suspension, generally. It sits between the control arm and the steering knuckle, and acts like a pivot point. It’s a connection that takes a lot of stress. It’s how the force from bumps and steering gets transferred. Without it, you’d have absolutely no steering control, and your ride would be… well, undrivable. It lets the wheel move while keeping everything secure. They’re important because they directly affect your steering and suspension. If one goes bad, you'll usually notice if you're driving down the road – things can feel loose, wobbly, or you might hear clunking noises, especially when going over bumps. Bad ball joints can also cause uneven tire wear. They’re a safety item, really. If they fail completely, it can lead to a loss of control. You can find replacements, of course – places like Fixparts Online have a good selection. It’s something you don't want to put off if you suspect a problem. Technical support you can rely on: Ball Joint (MPN 49395236) comes with a 12-month warranty!
