STEERING BALL JOINTS

1. Check for wear in joints by moving ball joint up

and down vigorously. If free movement is
apparent, fit a new joint assembly.

2. Check condition of steering ball joints paying

particular attention to dust covers.

NOTE: Any requirement to replace the
steering ball joints should be advised to
the customer as this will incur additional

labour and/or material cost and should not be
carried out without the authorisation of the
customer.

NOTE: Ball joints are lubricated for life
during manufacture and require no further
lubrication unless the rubber boot has

been dislodged or damaged. All joints should be
checked at specified service intervals, but more
frequently if vehicle is used under arduous
conditions.
