The parts are made with highly polished stud and bearing surfaces with close tolerance clearances between the surfaces to reduce friction. The parts come factory packed with the highest quality molybdenum disulfide grease for performance regardless of temperature, pressure, or cycle frequency.

Mid-carbon steel (.43% carbon) is used whereas competitors use mild steel (.17%). The reason competitors use low carbon steel is because it's cheaper to buy and easier to work with. Low carbon steel allows them to produce shells and studs using cold forging rather than stronger, more expensive hot forging needed with mid-carbon steel. SAE1045 mid-carbon micro alloy steel is the particular steel used. Competition uses SAE4118 low carbon steel.

We used the higher carbon steel and hot forging method because we get a stronger, more durable part with less distortion from the severe heat-treating required to get the same hardness from low carbon steel.

The result of the cold forging is that size variations may be over +/- .010". Our part is CNC milled on all surfaces to produce virtually zero tolerance fit.

The upper ball joints are made from hot forging rather than the metal stampings used by competition. This gave us a much stronger, more durable part with a much larger, stronger bearing surface and a pull-out rating almost double that of the competition.

Threads on studs and nuts are machine cut and matched to ensure greatest thread contact and smoothness of torques. The ability to spin the nuts on by hand greatly speeds up installation..

CR rubber compound is used for the dust boots. It remains strong and flexible at the high and low temperatures encountered by North American vehicles. CR compound is also impermeable to brake fluid and road level ozone. The boots have a double lip seal to keep grease in and dirt out. The boots are anchored to the part to ensure boot retention. An accordion-type boot is used on the upper ball joints. This prevents the bottom of the boot from being pulled from its anchored base and prevents the stud sealing hole from becoming elliptical (egg shaped).

The ball joints come fully assembled and can be installed with the boot already installed on the ball joint.

They also feature forged ball studs (SAE4140 steel) and a knurled, press-fit diameter to accommodate both fresh and worn lower control arms. 75-79 CHEVROLET NOVA/CHEVY II
