Load-Carrying Ball Joint
Ball joints may be grouped into two classifications, load carrying and non-load carrying. Ball joints may be manufactured with forged, stamped, cold-formed, or screw-machined housings. The coil spring is seated on the control arm to which the load-carrying ball joint is attached. For example, when the coil spring is mounted between the lower control arm and the chassis, the lower ball joint is a load-carrying joint. In a torsion bar suspension, the load-carrying ball joint is mounted on the control arm to which the torsion bar is attached. A load-carrying ball joint supports the vehicle weight.
Tension-Loaded Ball Joint Mounting
When the lower control arm is positioned below the steering knuckle, the vehicle weight is pulling the ball joint away from the knuckle. This type of ball joint mounting is referred to as tension loaded. Since the load-carrying ball joint supports the vehicle weight, this ball joint wears faster compared with a non-load-carrying ball joint. Many load-carrying ball joints have built-in wear indicators.
Non-Load-Carrying Ball Joint
A non-load-carrying ball joint may be referred to as a stabilizing or follower ball joint. A non-load-carrying ball joint is designed with a preload, which provides damping action. This ball joint preload provides improved steering quality and vehicle stability.
Low-Friction Ball Joints
Low-friction ball joints are standard equipment on many vehicles. Low-friction ball joints provide precise low-friction movement of the ball socket in the ball joint. Compared to conventional ball joints, two-thirds of the internal friction is eliminated in a low-friction ball joint. The smooth ball socket movement in a low-friction ball joint provides improved steering performance, better steering wheel return, and longer ball joint life. Low-friction ball joints have a highly polished ball socket surface surrounded by a high-strength polymer bearing.
