Installation Notes

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front lower position before installation. Inspect the surrounding control arm, fasteners, and steering components for wear before replacing the ball joint. Because mounting hardware is included, confirm all supplied hardware matches the vehicle’s service requirements and follow factory torque specifications during installation.
