Product Details
Owners of the 1993 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra, SVT Cobra R can fit the Whiteline Front Lower Ball Joint. The chassis code on the listing is Fox. Application note: Standard Replacement. The kit contains 1 ball joint. The listing names the SVT Cobra and SVT Cobra R trims. Part number W53557. Position: front.
Ball joints carry a big share of the car's weight and the loads from steering and braking. A worn one lets the wheel shift out of position, so replacing it restores precise steering and keeps alignment settings from drifting.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 1 hour. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Mustang, see Front Sway Bar Link Kit, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, and Rear Upper Control Arms.
