Thumbs up Super heavy duty Ball joints

Stopped by the Carli shop today.They pulled out a mystery box and told me to open it up and check it out.A bit hesitant,since I have seen a few practical jokes in my day I cautiously opened the box...............There they were the new ball joints.................all surrounded in the cut out foam packaging,surrounded in class and complete with a tube of Redline synthetic grease.Nice job guys!They were working out the install instructions written in limens terms.The miller tool part#s were included so the die guys can spec the correct tools to get er done.The grease ports and slots were impressive,the added o-ring will allow a water tight seal.The pin itself is removable for inspection.All the things that a $50k truck should have been built with.Awesome job.The end to upper ball joint issues!
