What ball joint? Low Friction?
« on: January 02, 2019, 08:35:16 am »
I am curious if there is a quality/affordable ball joint that is low friction and isn't as tight as the stuff coming of the shelf at the local parts store or some other vendors?  The price difference is quite substantial ($75 vs. $25ish each)  Any inputs

The only real difference in ball joints legally is how well they are made and range of motion. Your $75 ball joint is not going to be legal. Might as well go with a rebuildable one for less money.
I've sold over 1000 of the vmsmotorsports.com ball joints to people all over the world the last 11 years. They have a smoother operation and a larger range of motion than the ones that I have seen from USLC. They are also a couple bucks less.
