    Modern suspensions combine a number of moving parts for safe and stable handling. The ball joint is the crucial moving component that ties those parts together. The ball-in-socket joint can wear out and loosen over time. Or, the rubber protective boot can tear, allowing contaminants to seize the joint. Bad ball joints are a common failure point on vehicle inspections because they lead to unsafe driving conditions. Fortunately, they are relatively easy to replace with the right know-how. This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ ball joints on your 2007-2014 Cadillac Escalade.

    Can the lower ball joint be replaced on a steel or aluminum control arm? I was told there’s a difference

    What kind of jack hammer do you use to get off the lower ball joint? Can't see your tool and you dont show it.

    If you're worried about the upper ball joint torque use a crows foot, just remember 90° for an accurate torque application.

    Some ball joints have fittings for grease. Why these don’t have grease?
