Description
Part #: YSPBJ-001HDK1
Superior materials lead to superior performance. When you replace and upgrade your failing OE ball joints with a heavy-duty Yukon unit you get a ball joint built to the highest standards of quality and durability. Its housing is CNC-machined from forged SAE 1045 carbon alloy steel and the ball stud is made from induction heat-treated, hot-forged 4140 chromoly. The upper joint's bearing features a carbon steel design that is superior to the OE joint. The lower joint uses military-grade acetal bearings because of their advanced anti-friction properties and dimensional stability. Ball joints are only as durable as the protection provided by their rubber boots. These Yukon ball joints feature a two-staged approach with a synthetic Neoprene/CR outer boot and an inner seal/pancake boot that safeguard the spherical joint and bucket against gritty road grime, oil, gas, and engine fluids, and extreme temperatures. This kit replaces the upper and lower front ball joints on one side and includes Grade 8 hardware, castle nuts, c-clips, cotter pins, and zerk fittings.
Features:
- Fits Dana 30 and Dana 44 front differentials
- Lower bearing features angled zerk fitting for easier servicing
- Kit includes 1 upper and 1 lower ball joint and associated small parts
- CNC-machined forged SAE 1045 carbon alloy steel housing ensures longer joint life
- Hot-forged, induction heat-treated 4140 chromoly ball stud produces unrivaled durability
- Features extrusion rolled threads which are significantly stronger than cut-thread construction
- Note: You may experience memory steer during a 300- to 500-mile performance break-in period
- Synthetic Neoprene-enhanced rubber boot and internal seal/pancake boot provide superior sealing against contaminants
- Greaseable, pre-threaded zerk housing makes lubrication maintenance quick and easy
- Improved upper bearing design eliminates dreaded Death Wobble
- Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects
Replace and upgrade your failing OE ball joints with Yukon's precision-built units constructed from strong high-tech materials. This kit replaces the upper and lower front ball joints on one side and includes all the required small parts.
