$144.89

Yukon Gear & Axle YSPBJ-013HDK1 Ball Joint Kit

Upgrade your front suspension with the Yukon Gear & Axle YSPBJ-013HDK1 Ball Joint Kit, designed specifically for the Dodge Ram 1500 (1994-2000) and Dodge Ram 2500 (1994-1998). This kit provides a robust solution for those looking to replace worn-out OE ball joints with high-performance components.

Construction and Durability

The YSPBJ-013HDK1 is engineered from superior materials to ensure longevity and reliability. The housing is CNC-machined from forged SAE 1045 carbon alloy steel, providing a solid foundation that withstands the rigors of off-road and street driving. The ball stud is crafted from hot-forged, induction heat-treated 4140 chromoly, which is known for its exceptional strength and durability.

Advanced Sealing Technology

Protection against contaminants is critical for ball joint longevity. This kit features a two-stage sealing system: a synthetic Neoprene/CR outer boot coupled with an inner seal/pancake boot. This innovative design effectively shields the spherical joint and bucket from road grime, oil, gas, and extreme temperatures, ensuring reliable performance over time.

Installation and Components

The YSPBJ-013HDK1 kit includes:

  • 1 Upper Ball Joint
  • 1 Lower Ball Joint
  • Grade 8 hardware
  • Castle nuts, c-clips, cotter pins, and zerk fittings

This comprehensive package simplifies installation and ensures that you have all the necessary components to complete the job. The greaseable, pre-threaded zerk fittings make maintenance quick and easy, allowing for regular lubrication to extend the life of your ball joints.

Performance and Compatibility

While installing the YSPBJ-013HDK1, note that some users may experience memory steer during the initial 300- to 500-mile break-in period. The improved upper bearing design significantly reduces the risk of the notorious Death Wobble, enhancing driving stability and safety.

Specifications

  • Ball Joint Included: (1) Upper & (1) Lower
  • Dust Boot Included: Yes
  • Grade Type: Performance
  • Grease Fitting Included: Yes
  • Greaseable: Yes

With a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, the Yukon Gear & Axle YSPBJ-013HDK1 Ball Joint Kit is a reliable choice for enhancing the performance of your Dodge Ram's front suspension.
