Description

Volvo XC70 front lower ball joint

Achieve dependable front lower suspension performance in your Volvo XC70 with this ball joint assembly, tailored for the lower control arm across 2003-2007 models. It eliminates looseness that causes handling issues on bumpy Kenyan roads, supporting precise steering and up to 100,000 km longevity with regular greasing. The robust design includes a protective boot to seal out debris, offering OEM-equivalent strength for urban or highway driving. Includes castle nut, cotter pin, and lock plate for secure mounting; confirm fit via VIN to match engine (e.g., 2.5T, D5) and avoid mismatches in AWD trims. Pair with bushing inspection for full refresh; professional torque prevents over-stressing the stud.

Detailed Key Features

  • Stud and Socket Mechanism: M12 steel ball stud in socket for full articulation, with M10/M12 hardware for control arm attachment.
  • Sealing and Lubrication: Rubber boot with zerk fitting retains grease, excluding water/dust for IP67-level protection in tropical climates.
