 Post subject: Does anyone make a greasable rear upper ball joint?
PostPosted: Thu Dec 06, 2007 1:19 pm 
Does anyone make a greasable rear upper ball joint, & what is the part number? I'm talking about the one that secures the rear axle to the tri-link assembly.

I have noises all over the place! That's why I'm getting the 4" lift...Whole new suspension! I'm wanting to change my rear ball joint proactively. I don't think it's bad yet, but it is old, & the ball joints of the same age that I have changed have had little more than dust lubricating them. Secondly, while I'm ripping into everything to install the lift, I figured it would be pretty easy to do it at that point. I was hoping to get a Moog greasable, like their lower front ball joint, or the ones in Al's upper control arms. But no joy... :(

Just replace it with a factory one if you're gonna have it all apart. I have 97k miles on mine and it's still good as far as i know.

I shot mine full of grease. Hopefully that will make it last a good while longer. :)
