Baller Joints Upper Ball Joint Upgrade Kit - Jeep JL Wrangler and JT Gladiator
The upper ball joints on their own. Uppers wear faster than lowers on the JL, so in many cases replacing just these is enough.

Gold Zinc finish
Steel parts are gold zinc plated. Zinc protects the steel electrochemically even where it is scratched, and the surface remains paintable.
Installation
Moderate. The manufacturer quotes 4-5 hours. No body modification. An alignment is required afterwards.
We import this product directly from the MetalCloak factory in the USA. Please contact us for the current lead time before placing an order.
