XRF Ford Excursion F250 F350 Super Duty 2 Upper & 2 Lower Ball Joint 99 - 06 4x4
Jun 01, 2017
So far, so good.
Had a local shop install ball joints from autozone. Could hardly drive the truck after that, as it had really bad memory steer. After watching a few YouTube videos, I installed these XRF ball joints on my truck. Took about 8 hrs but it was well worth it. Truck drives amazing now. No sticking at all. Steering is so smooth and tight. Still have to see how they hold up long term but initial impression is good. And I don't mean to be knocking autozone ball joints. I could tell when I took them out that the local shop had just slapped them in, never bothered to clean the flange where the ball joint seats into the knuckle. And by knowing that, they probably didn't bother doing the required 3 step torquing method which can screw up a new ball joint. NOTE: I installed these on a Dana 60 axle which is used in Ford and Dodge diesel trucks.
