Detailed Description

MAS Chassis BJ96115 is a suspension ball joint engineered for the front lower suspension on the Jeep Cherokee. It uses a pressed mounting type with a taper attachment and a steel housing, along with a polymer bearing surface for controlled articulation. The design follows the original equipment application for 2014-2023 Jeep Cherokee models and supports precise suspension movement where wear can affect steering feel and alignment stability. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K500287 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Front suspension looseness or play
• Clunking or knocking from the lower control arm area
• Uneven tire wear related to worn suspension joints
• Steering wander caused by excessive joint movement
• Inspection failure from worn front lower suspension components

Installation Notes and Tips

BJ96115 installs as a pressed ball joint, so proper removal and installation tools are required. Verify the 44.5 mm housing press-fit diameter, stud thread size, and front lower application before service. Because the joint is not greaseable and does not use a cotter pin hole or castle nut, follow the vehicle-specific service procedure for the Jeep Cherokee during installation and final torque checks.
