It replaces the factory plastic-cap design with a stamped steel arm, riveted construction, and a forged steel ball joint housing to address cracking at the knuckle connection and reduce the risk of separation under normal driving conditions. The sealed housing and coated arm help limit moisture buildup and corrosion, while the pre-greased, bolt-in ball joint design supports long-term service life. This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme CMS95137 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Helps Solve\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-end creaking caused by moisture trapped around the ball joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCracking in the upper right control arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall joint wear from corrosion and contamination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteering knuckle separation related to weakened arm construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoose or noisy suspension behavior at the front right upper corner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall on the front right upper suspension position only. Verify the mounting hole diameter, ball joint stud type, and overall arm geometry against the original part before installation. Because this assembly uses a bolt-in ball joint and includes the bushings and ball joint already installed, it is suited for direct replacement service on Tesla Model X vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDorman designs this OE FIX assembly to address known weaknesses in the factory part while maintaining factory-style fitment for 2016-2025 Tesla Model X models.
