Most Liked Positive Review
I would buy this product again and again
good part does the job only thing in that the old ones may be a pain to press out. but with the tool we where able to get booth sides out a new upper control is over 100$ I think. also like the other person said the boot in not well made a does not seal well
Most Liked Negative Review
For 2005 Explorer owners!
I ended up having to buy new upper control arms instead (they include new upper ball joints). I wasn't able to press out the ball joints in the old control arms and believe me, I tried. The good thing about this is that now I have new upper ball joints AND new upper control arms.

Hi Wayne, glad to assist you! From spring compressors to specialized pullers and more, we’re here to help with the tools you need to get the job done right. Deposit required.
I purchased this part to replace over the weekend. According to a Ford tech. I spoke with you cannot replace only the ball joint but must replace the entire upper control arm. According to your parts listing both Drive Works and Moog make replacement ball joints. I need to know if the joint alone is replaceable or not? Please advise.
Verified Reply - Vincent
Hi Paul, great question! You can very well replace just the suspension ball joint. As you are in need for the replacement of suspension ball joint, the entire upper control arm assembly may be on the verge of failure and needs attention too. So, it is recommended to replace as an assembly in order to avoid intermittence.

Hi Suspension tech, glad to help you! Yes, this ball joint is an exact replacement for your 2003 Ford Explorer.
