What is everybody running? I feel like I'm due to replace mine soon..

 

Just went from stock to Teraflex and I have had no complaints... For the last 130 miles they've been on

 

Any Maintence on them? Gotta grease every oil change?

 

I'm going to grease them every 3K miles to play it safe. They were expensive as hell and I want them to last. But in all honesty, its a HUGE difference in my steering it feels like. It was a last minute decision and I was trying to figure out why swapping axle made it feel so much better and I realized the ball joints were the only variable. I can't speak on their longevity obviously, but I'm very happy so far.

 

You are looking for balljoints that do not need maintenance? Another set of stock, or some people have reported that crown joints from napa or where ever are decent.

Synergy, AlloyUSA, Teraflex, Dynatrac - all have zerks.


Some good info for those who have not read it...

I had Crowns (did not buy from Napa) and got about 25K miles from them before the bottoms were shot. Now have Synergy with about 30K miles and like them. But greasing 24 zerk fittings (just four on the BJs) on my Jeep is a bit of a nuisance, mostly because there are always a few that refuse to take grease without removing the zerk, cleaning it up, and putting it back in. When one gets plugged like that, end up with grease all over the place except in the joint, so it's a pretty messy job.

 

I am running NAPA Gold which are spicers, greaseable, stintered metal like the others, very well built and lifetime warranty!

 

I have the ball joints from rare parts. Only one of their kind. Check them out.

 

Dynatrac - No issues so far.

Expensive but money well spent
