Review on Proforged 101 10429 Front Right Lower by Doug Olson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Failed after a few months

I bought it to save time and simplify assembly, then push out the ball joint. The ball joint failed after a very short time

Pros
  • WHAT IS A BALL JOINT? The ball joint is a closed spherical bearing that connects the wishbone to the steering knuckle or spindle. It has a ball joint just like your hip and will need to be replaced when it wears out. A worn ball joint impairs handling and makes it difficult or impossible to fall, which leads to rapid tire wear. Replacing worn ball joints results in a noticeable improvement in steering feel, handling and safety.
Cons
  • There are disadvantages
