BUILDING BETTER BALL JOINTS — A LOOK INSIDE ACDelco QUALITY
Ball joints are important chassis parts that you may have had replaced over the years. They connect part of the steering system to the
suspension control arms and have a ball-and-socket design that allows a full range of movement when the wheels are steered and as the
suspension moves vertically.
When it comes to replacing ball joints, there can be big differences between brands. ACDelco chooses the best design for each application,
with advanced technology that some competitors don’t have.
ACDelco’s part offers superb strength and durability, thanks to a precision-manufactured housing and components, as well as advanced
corrosion protection.
Check out these key differences between ACDelco and some of the
competition:
1. ACDelco has a permanently attached polyurethane boot that helps
reduce contamination, while some of the competition has a slide-on
neoprene boot.
2. ACDelco has a precision-machined, high-polished full ball stud. Some
of the competition, however, doesn’t.
3. ACDelco uses a low-friction bearing around the ball for smoother
operation and greater fatigue resistance. Again, some of the
competition doesn’t.
4. ACDelco doesn’t require a spring to compensate for component
tolerances. Some of the competition does.
Ask your technician for more information about the advantages of
ACDelco components for your vehicle.
