New Ball Joints - Grease fittings!!!

[kenallwine]

I don't know if anyone has seen these yet from PolyPerformance.

They are fully greasable ball joints that don't cost an arm and a leg!

Hrm are the JK's ball joints the same as the XK's? I know they share a lot of suspension parts, but I'm to new to this stuff to know for sure.

If you are using Dana 35 front axle, I would suppose it would fit. I would check with the company though.

I was just looking at those yesterday. My ball joints started getting sloppy at only 18K miles and I want to upgrade to a heavy duty set. The other set I was looking at come from Dynatrac, they are pricey but look like they'll hold up to whatever abuse I put them through!

35 was never a front axle. The JKs have 30s or 44s in the front. 35 was a rear axle that is no longer used in JKs.

Both of which are IFS versus the JKs straight axle.

Dynatracs are about $600. Even the rebuild kit is like $150. That makes the Polys a great choice. However, they aren't available yet. I have first hand experiance with them though and they are very stout. The factory ball joints have plastic races, and the Polys are sintered metal so they should hold together much much better. I really don't see any reason why these wouldn't last as long as the Dynatracs.
