Hi, all,
I was wondering if anybody knows what replacement ball joints I should use on my older JBA A-arms.
2005 KJ w/ CRD. I got the 2.5 inch lift with the Adjust-A-Strut. I think this was the "gold" lift back then. This was probably around the summer of 2010.
The JBA website shows the K6292 ball joint, and lists AC/Delco #45D0062 and Raybestos #500-1062 for the Gen 4.5 KJ arms, but I know mine predate Gen 4.5.
I called JBA, but got the message that they were out on the trail, "testing parts." More power to them, I hope they're having a great time. But, meanwhile, I would like to get my ball joints replaced today or tomorrow if I can find the right part number and if the part store has them in stock. My car has a big "rejected" sticker on it right now for failing the ball joint component of the annual safety inspection and I have to drive it to work on Monday.
Either one should work or just order on line with JBA, they will be back in the shop Monday morning early
