It is well known that most lube shops are not tending to greaseable joints during maintenance, therefore a lack of lubrication causing prematurely worn ball joints has been an issue for the last decade or more. Maintenance free ball joints therefore seem like a great solution, unfortunately there are factors that can cause issues. If a dust\/grease boot is compromised on a maintenance free joint allowing contamination inside, grease can't be pumped in from the top to flush out contaminants and re-lubricate the joint. The plastic liner of the joint then wears and creates a squeaky joint that needs replaced. Replacing a traditional press in ball joint takes time and can be a pain in the rear without the proper specialty tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh angle to accomodate more suspension travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurability of a ball joint with performance of a uni-ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBootless seal, protection from weather without risk of torn boots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreasable, internal grease cavity retains lubricant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZinc plated corrosion resistant housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlloy joint for maximum longevity, no plastic liner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreater pullout strength than plastic lined ball joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits These Vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2001-2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2001-2026 GMC Sierra 2500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2001-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 3500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2001-2006 GMC Sierra 3500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Classic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Classic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Classic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007 GMC Sierra 3500 Classic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007-2026 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2007-2026 GMC Sierra 3500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2014-2018 GMC Sierra 1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2015-2020 Chevrolet Tahoe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2015-2020 GMC Yukon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 2015-2020 GMC Yukon XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp class=\"pst-note\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eConfirm the model year, the trim and the part number against your vehicle before ordering.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"pst-note\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor Cognito bolt-in style upper control arms.
