The 2014-onwards Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD carry serious front-axle weight - especially diesel trucks that tow, carry campers or run oversized tyres - and the factory ball joints are a known wear point long before the truck is old. This kit replaces all four with forged steel housings and heat-treated chromoly studs, with knurled lowers that hold fast in a knuckle that has seen joints changed before. It is a genuine Apex Chassis part, imported to the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2014+ Ram 2500\/3500 4WD trucks with front-end play, wander or uneven tyre wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTowing and touring setups carrying sustained front-axle load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrucks on larger tyres that multiply the leverage on every joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners replacing worn joints once with parts built above factory duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Apex Chassis (USA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Heavy-duty ball joint kit (front, full vehicle set)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: KIT111\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Items: 2x BJ130 upper (un-knurled), 2x BJ150 lower (knurled)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Application: Dodge Ram 2500 (2014-2026) 4WD; Ram 3500 (2014-2026) 4WD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: SAE 1045 forged steel housings, SAE 4140 chromoly ball studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment And Setup Checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your truck is a 2014-onwards 2500 or 3500 4WD before ordering - fitment shown is manufacturer reference.
