Detailed Description
This Dorman suspension ball joint, part number 533-233, is made for front upper suspension locations on a wide range of classic trucks and SUVs. It uses a press-in mounting type with a threaded design and bolt-on stud type, and it includes a dust boot to help protect the joint from road debris and moisture. The assembly is greaseable, and the cotter pin hole supports secure fastening during installation. Cross-reference applications include MOOG Chassis Products K8194T and Delphi TC1657 for the same type of service.
Compatible vehicle coverage includes front upper applications on 1972-1979 Ford Bronco, 1977-1979 Ford F-150, 1975-1976 Ford F-100, 1975-1986 Chevrolet K10, 1975-1986 Chevrolet K20, 1975-1986 Chevrolet K5 Blazer, 1976-1986 Jeep CJ7, and 1984-1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

What It Helps Fix
- Front-end looseness or play from a worn upper ball joint
- Clunking or popping noises from the front suspension
- Uneven tire wear caused by suspension joint wear
- Steering wander or reduced road feel
- Failed dust boot protection that exposes the joint to contamination
