  • Fits either the driver or passenger side.
  • Sold individually.

Features:

  • Forged High-Strength Housing – Designed to withstand the increased loads from oversized tires, towing, and off-road use.
  • Heat-Treated Chromoly Ball Stud – Provides exceptional strength and resistance to bending under extreme conditions.
  • Metal-on-Metal Internal Design – Eliminates the weak plastic bearing surfaces commonly found in OE-style replacements for superior durability and steering precision.
  • Greaseable By Design – Apply 4–6 pumps during installation, then maintain with approximately 2-4 pumps every 5,000–7,000 miles. Designed to purge contaminants without overfilling the boot.
  • Black Oxide Finish – Provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a clean, durable finish.
  • Direct OE Replacement – Installs into the factory lower control arm with no modifications required.

Description:

    Kryptonite Heavy-Duty Lower Ball Joints are engineered for GM 1500 trucks and SUVs that demand more than an OE replacement can deliver. Whether your truck spends its life towing, off-road, or running larger wheels and tires, these ball joints are built to maintain precise steering and long-term durability under increased loads.

    Unlike conventional replacement ball joints that rely on plastic internals, Kryptonite utilizes a premium metal-on-metal bearing design paired with a forged housing and heat-treated chromoly ball stud for maximum strength and service life. The greaseable construction allows contaminants to be flushed from the joint during routine maintenance, helping extend performance even in the harshest environments.

    I installed the Kryptonite upper control arms with upper and lower ball joints on my 2001 Silverado with a 2" level kit. The install was easy, the parts fit well. The end result is a much better handling ride and the alignment is now correct. The before and after support was excellent. The only minor concern is that the grease zerks for the upper bushings are not positioned correctly when tightened - they face the frame rail so you cannot get a grease gun onto them. Again minor. I'd highly recommend this company and their equipment

    Will these lower ball joints work with the kryptonite upper control arms?

    Kryptonite Products Team

    The upper control arms won't affect the fitment of the lower ball joints, as long as your truck has the cast steel lower control arms, these ball joints will fit.

    I have a 04 Silverado z71 with a 5/7 drop that’s eating ball joints and was wondering if this would help? It has aftermarket belltech lowering lower control arms so wasent sure if they would fit.

    Kryptonite Products Team

    It sounds like there may be an underlaying issue with your set up but our ball joints outlast OEM and other aftermarket offerings with metal on metal internals and heat treated studs.

    Will these lower ball joints fit a 2014 Gmc Sierra 1500 4wd? I want to verify before i order them.

    Kryptonite Products Team

    These will fit your truck, as long as it is equipped with the cast steel lower control arms.
