To keep your Carli Ball Joints performing at their best, service them every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. The recommended involves greasing the ball joints using Redline CV2 Grease or a comparable synthetic ball joint grease. Here's the greasing procedure: First, safely set the front axle on jack stands to unload the ball joints. Next, clean the zerk fittings on the lower ball joints and attach a manual grease gun. Pump grease into the lower ball joints until you see clean grease exiting the grease port. Then, pump grease into the upper ball joints until the grease gun firms up, typically after 1-2 pumps. After greasing all four ball joints, start the truck and cycle the steering wheel from lock to lock five times while it's still on jack stands. Finally, turn off the truck, remove the jack stands, and you're done. In addition to regular greasing, every 3-4 maintenance cycles, it's a good idea to recheck the torque on the ball joint nuts: Torque the lower ball joint nut to 160 lb.ft using a 1-5/16” socket. Torque the upper ball joint nut to 70 lb.ft using a 15/16” Crow’s Foot. Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your Carli Ball Joints provide a smooth, safe, and long-lasting driving experience.
