Dynatrac Rebuildable HD Balljoints for 2018-Present Jeep Wrangler JL and 2020-Present Jeep Gladiator JT solve wear and excessive movement issues that can lead to increased tire wear, loose steering feel and decreased stability.
With larger tires, factory balljoints can develop excessive play and movement in as little as 20,000 miles. Watch this video that shows the wear in an OEM balljoint from a Jeep JL with 35-inch tall tires and 20,000 miles:
Dynatrac Rebuildable HD BallJoints are the strongest, most durable and highest quality available anywhere, providing better steering, more driving control and lower costs over the life of the vehicle. They can be rebuilt without requiring the balljoint body to be removed from the axle housing.
This is a complete set of patented, made-in-the-USA, rebuildable, Dynatrac HD BallJoints™ for 2018-Current Jeep Wrangler JL and 2020-Current Jeep Gladiator JT. It includes 4 balljoints, 4 nuts, 4 cotter pins and 2 safety snap rings. Fits stock front axle or Dynatrac ProRock 44™ for Jeep JL/JT applications.
While the factory balljoints in these applications use a nylon insert to house the ball socket in the housing, Dynatrac HD Balljoints use a heat-treated, precision-ground stainless steel ball in a heat-treated, high-strength billet body. No other high-wear components are used.
Dynatrac has engineered an exclusive safety features into these new HD Balljoints. On the Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT, the balljoints press in from the bottom. The heavy weight of large tires and wheels can become momentarily airborne in extreme terrain. That could allow the balljoint bodies to move. Dynatrac makes its HD Balljoints with a snap ring to lock the bodies in position as an extra safety provision. The Dynatrac snap ring design eliminates potential movement.
Dynatrac HD Balljoints are made in the USA. They feature heat-treated high-strength billet bodies with chromoly stems. The heat-treated, precision-ground stainless-steel ball meets military specifications. Unique seals prevent contamination, and the balljoints have grease-able fittings and Teflon-coated wear points to provide a long, durable life.
Symptoms of worn balljoints include the vehicle wandering on the road, decreased steering feel, wobble, tire-tread cupping and feathering.
The OEM balljoints used in these Jeep applications often wear quickly with larger off-road tires, many road miles or extreme off-roading. Replacing worn factory balljoints with OEM or inferior aftermarket knock-offs is a short-term fix. Dynatrac HD BallJoints are built specifically for the rigorous demands of these vehicles.
We recommend using a Dynatrac Installation Kit to make installing these balljoints easier.
