I cannot for the life of me keep ball joints in my D-30 that is spinning 35s. Ive replaced 4 in the last year. I fully understand this is one of the weak spots in a d-30, but come on. I buy the better ones that Crown sells ($80). Ive personally installed them and had my buddy who is ASE and has 40+ years of jeep/automotive experience install them, so that leaves any install errors out. I grease the hell out of them all the time. My last ball joint lasted a whole month (I did get it warranted from Crown)! The lower joint was so bad when I replaced it the ball bearing fell out and the joint was in 2 pieces.
Am I just overly had on them, or what? What brands you recommend running as a replacement? Are there any really heavy duty ball joints on the market?
