Wow. That is a TON of money for ball joints and they appear to have absolutely no warranty. I would not waste your money. They even say you will have to rebuild them. I just went this route and will be installing them this weekend

X 2 about a month ago. Jim
I also bought a Lincoln 90 degree grease gun end, and put straight fittings in the top joints. Works for me. Jim

Well, what kind of warranty does anyone else have...?? million mile waranty my but LOL Then if they are junk, do you think they will pay for them to be replaced... LOL Then they will ask "do you have oversized tires"... um... NO.. LOL

You can rebuild these while they are still on the truck... NO PRESSING!! These ball joints are for those who don't want to mess with ball joints again. You think dynatrac makes junk? I know the guy who tested these ball joints to the max... 46" tires and tons of wheeling If they could brake, he would have broken them. Dynatrac stands behind their product period... If they are defective Dynatrac will fix and replace them.

I have these on my truck, so I don't have to mess with them every year or two. If you have oversized tires YOU WILL be replacing your ball joints every few years... 600 bucks is worth it to me.

I have heard nothing, but good things about those Dynatrac ball joints. It seems like Ford front ends are notorious for puking ball joints and those would slow it down.
