Detailed Description

Mevotech TTX CTXMS401186 combines a steel control arm, integrated ball joint, sintered metal bearing material, and upgraded rubber bushings to address wear in the front left lower suspension position. The assembly is pre-greased and includes a grease fitting, dust boot, mounting hardware, and locking nut to streamline replacement work. This part cross-references Ford/Lincoln OE numbers 19474597 and FA5Z3079B for the same application. For buyers searching for a Ford Taurus front left lower control arm or a Lincoln MKS/MKT lower control arm assembly, CTXMS401186 provides a direct replacement path with service-focused construction.

What It Helps Fix

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excessive play from a worn ball joint
• Uneven tire wear caused by suspension looseness
• Steering wander or reduced directional stability
• Noise from deteriorated control arm bushings

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2013-2019 Ford Taurus, front left lower; 2013-2016 Lincoln MKS, front left lower; 2013-2016 Lincoln MKT, front left lower; and 2013-2015 Ford Flex, front left lower. Confirm the vehicle’s suspension layout and position before installation. Because this assembly includes a threaded ball joint stud, grease fitting, and hardware, it is suited to a complete lower control arm replacement rather than a bushing-only repair. After installation, verify alignment settings and inspect adjacent suspension components for wear.
