Upgrade the front end of your 2005–2018 Toyota Tacoma with the Apex Chassis Super HD Front Upper Ball Joint – a forged SAE 1045 housing, hot-forged chromoly stud and rugged metal-to-metal bearing, engineered and tested in-house and off-road by Apex.
Why Choose the Apex Chassis Super HD Front Upper Ball Joint?
- Forged SAE 1045 solid steel housing – The best carbon alloy steel for this application, CNC machined to make parts and bearings dimensionally perfect with no die wear issues.
- Knurled housing – The preferred design for aftermarket installations.
- Greaseable – Pre-threaded zerk housing, gull-winged grease grooves for improved lubrication around the ball stud, zerk fitting included.
- CR rubber boot – The most durable material for undercar applications, resistant to road-level ozone, oil/gas/engine fluids and extreme heat or cold. Accordion design adds flexibility for high-articulation components and longer life.
- SAE 4140 hot-forged chromoly ball stud – For the strongest possible metallurgy, induction heat treated to the exact depth and location and polished like an anti-friction bearing with extremely precise tolerances.
- Rolled and stepped threads – Pressed instead of cut, which strengthens the threads and allows easy movement of hardware, with superior holding when torqued.
