Product Details
Whiteline built the Front Lower Ball Joint for the 2003-2004 Ford Mustang Mach I. It is listed for the SN95 chassis. In the box: 1 ball joint. Application note: Standard Replacement. Trim named on the listing: Mach I. Whiteline part number: W53558. This part is for the front of the vehicle.
A loose ball joint can be felt as a vague front end and heard as a knock over bumps. It is also a load-bearing part of the suspension, so a worn joint is worth replacing rather than living with.
Installation is rated difficult, with about 1 hour of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Mustang, see Ball Joint Boot Kit, Rear Upper Control Arms, and 26mm Non-Adjustable Rear Sway Bar.
Features

- Steering feel: Steering response and feedback get more precise with the slack removed.
- Play removed: Removes the play and looseness that worn factory joints develop.
