It is a small, but significant shock-absorbing part of the vehicle\u2019s front suspension system. When you are driving, the ball stud keeps moving and makes it easier to steer and support \u2013 similar to how the human hip or shoulder bones work.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ball joints connect your car\u2019s wheels to the steering and control systems. Depending on the type of vehicle and suspension system, upper and lower ball joints. Lower ball joints are load-bearing, while upper ball joints are typically non-load-bearing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_a_ball_joint_do\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What does a ball joint do?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If your car has no ball joints, the tires wouldn\u2019t run or turn smoothly. Ball joints are the vital connection between steering knuckles and the control arms. It ensures the knuckles stay attached to the car while allowing it to turn in different directions. The tires need to move side to side, as well as up and down for a smooth drive.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45984\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45984\" style=\"width: 343px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-45984 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ball-Joint-cross-section.jpg\" alt=\"Ball joints used in a car\" width=\"343\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"http:\/\/wordwblog02.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ball-Joint-cross-section.jpg 343w, http:\/\/wordwblog02.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ball-Joint-cross-section-300x221.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 343px) 100vw, 343px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45984\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Ball_joint_cross_section_(from_English_Wikipedia_to_be_used_in_other_languages).jpg\">Silverxxx<\/a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_do_ball_joints_need_replacement\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Why do ball joints need replacement?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Like every other part of a car, ball joints have daily wear and tear. Constant movement and prolonged use of a vehicle loosen the ball stud. With more space between the stud and socket, it moves around more than recommended. Dirt and other impurities can also aid the deterioration. Lack of lubrication is another cause of bad ball joints.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Once the ball joint deteriorates beyond the limit recommended by the car\u2019s manufacturer, it becomes a serious safety issue. The wheel can come off partially if the ball stud pulls out of the socket. This could lead you to lose control of the car if it is in drive.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_know_if_my_ball_joints_are_bad\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How do I know if my ball joints are bad?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If your car\u2019s ball joints are healthy, it will move side-to-side smoothly; there\u2019s won\u2019t be any wiggles or jolts when you drive.
