XRF Ball Joints

[004x41500]

well after numerous searchs, countless forums, many posts, and sore eyes, I've ordered some XRF ball joints. I ended up ordering from http://www.thetireclub.com/ I found it easier to call them cause they dont have a full listing online since theyre changing their website around.

i forgot to add their # 1-877-458-4737

Total was $160 shipped. actually $159.94, which beats Rock Autos price for moogs at $225.00.

YES THAT IS FOR ALL 4! 2 uppers and 2 lowers.

They said theyd be shipped out today (8/10), and I should have them on Monday (8/15)

this is for a 00 4x4 so p/ns might change for different years and 2x4

The uppers p/n is K3134T $22.80/ea
The lowers p/n is K7401 $57.17/ea

they come with XRFs million mile warranty.

I was also quoted 3xx.xx (dont remember exactly) for the entire front end, tierods, ends, sleeves, drag link, everything. once again, all XRF brand. after reading about this guys experience with XRF customer service, I TOO WILL BE GOING WITH THEM FOR MY FRONT END NEEDS!!!

I cant seem to find any bad reviews on these things. We will see how they hold up to the abuse my truck sees. between larger tires, towing, and everything in between.


even if they go out in 60k miles (which they shouldnt) thats still 4 years from now, I put about 15k a year on the truck. im sure the ball joints will out last the motor.

I wonder why the lowers are sealed and not greasable? I would def want greasable ball joints, both upper and lower...


Good luck with these Cory.

the problem with that on the 4x4 is the U-Joints if there was a zerk there, A. it would be broken off by the u-joint, and B. you wouldnt be able to grease it anyways becaquse of the u-joint.
