We are now replacing the Standard Rubber Boots on our A-Frame Ball Joints with our UPGRADED polyurethane Polyboots, GL1174, and GL1265 Stainless Steel Clip, we are doing this during assembly here as they are not as easy to change once fitted to a vehicle. A common problem with Rubber Boots these days is perishing/cracking, Rubber doesn’t seem to be what it used to be. Polyurethane will not perish/crack like normal Rubber which will give a much longer service life. During assembly we also pre grease the joints here, please note the small clip on the boot is not fitted, this is because the joint is greaseable.
This is an Adjustable & Greaseable A-Frame Ball Joint ready pressed into the housing to make it easier to fit to your Land Rover, A frame joints can be very difficult to get out of the old housing and just as difficult to press the new one in, this is why we have done this ready assembled in the housing.
This A-Frame Ball Joint can be adjusted if you do find you get play.
To adjust, tighten the 19mm adjuster nut 1/4 turn at a time until the play has gone and knock over the lock tabs once done.
By greasing the a-frame ball joint you will prevent the adjuster nut from seizing up which is commonly known with adjustable joints.
If new bolts are required to fit the A-frame ball joint, please see here – GL1218
