Synergy Jeep JK / JKU / WJ Heavy Duty Front Ball Joint Set
Part #: SYN-JK-D3044BJ
Weight: 4 lbs
Our Synergy Jeep JK / JKU / WJ Heavy Duty Front Ball Joint Set replaces your Jeep Wrangler's factory ball joints with heavy duty ball joints. After over 5 years of development and over 500,000 test miles of research and development and serious abuse, these ball joints are the highest quality ball joints on the market.
Our fully greaseable metal on metal design improves durability and performance. The extra large ball joint bearing surface eliminates the inner nylon liner, creating a longer lasting, more reliable joint. If you have a lifted jeep, then you need heavy duty ball joints to put up to the abuse of bigger tires and offroad riding.

Notes:
- Synergy High Performance Grease recommended
- Metal on metal ball joints require a small break-in period of typically 100-500 miles to fully "seat" the bearing surfaces. During this time the steering may feel "sticky" or slow to "return to center". Once broken in, the steering will be smooth and tight
- Knurled ball joints are required when replacing ball joints that have enlarged ball joint bores; It is up to the installer to verify proper fitment
