Detailed Description

This Dorman suspension ball joint, part number 533-291, is designed for front lower suspension service on 1971-1985 Toyota Celica, 1975-1987 Toyota Corolla, and 1979-1982 Toyota Corona. It uses a threaded, press-in style construction and includes a tapered stud for secure suspension connection. The steel body and rubber dust boot support durable service in demanding front suspension locations.

This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 101-3881 for the same application. For buyers searching Toyota Corolla front lower ball joint replacement, Toyota Celica front lower suspension ball joint, or Toyota Corona front lower ball joint, Dorman 533-291 matches the listed OE-style application range.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive play in the front lower suspension joint
  • Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
  • Uneven tire wear related to worn suspension geometry
  • Loose steering feel caused by ball joint wear
  • Restoring proper front suspension articulation on Toyota Corolla, Celica, and Corona models
