Do you need oversize or regular joints?
Oversize housing ball joints are used on trucks where the ball joint bore in the axle C has been enlarged by repeated ball joint replacements, or replacements with other oversize housing joints like Moog or similar. Standard joints are used on trucks with fresh axle C’s or on trucks that haven’t had many ball joint replacements. Want more information? Watch this video comparing oversize and regular ball joints.
Once you stretch the bore of the C, you cannot go back, so we like to use oversize joints as a last resort. For 99% of trucks, we like to use standard joints, and then this install technique.
These are one of our favorite ball joints for a reason and fit 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 Ram 2500 trucks and 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012 Ram 3500 trucks.
