Detailed Description
This Dorman suspension ball joint, part number 533-317, is designed for the front lower position on 1987-1990 Toyota Tercel vehicles. It uses a threaded, bolt-in mounting style with a tapered stud and three mounting holes for a secure OE-style installation. The steel body, rubber dust boot, and greaseable construction support long-term suspension service in everyday driving conditions. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K9379 for the same application.
For buyers searching for a front lower ball joint for 1987-1990 Toyota Tercel, Dorman 533-317 provides a direct replacement option that matches the original suspension layout. The assembly includes a castle nut and mounting hardware, and it is built as a standard replacement rather than an adjustable performance part.
What It Helps Address
