Review on Mevotech TXK80028 Ball Joint by Chris Bradford

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worst Ball Joints

I installed these ball joints, top and bottom, on a field trip in 2002. These ball joints are so stiff they cause catastrophic steering memory problems. After installation the truck ran worse than my 1979 1 ton farm truck. The steering was poorly relieved but when I hitched up my trailer there was a dangerous steering problem which resulted in an accident on the freeway. I took them off and replaced them with Moog ball joints and all the steering issues were gone. Stay away from those ball joints.

Pros
  • PRECISE FIT: Easily and precisely press the ball joint into the larger diameter flange.
Cons
  • I'm concerned about this
