Busted Grease Zerk on Carli Lower Ball Joint
Hey All,
Hey All,
I installed the Carli ball joints on my 2004 Dodge ram 2500 Cummins last October. I have liked them a lot. I grease them regularly at every oil change.
Today was the third time I have gone in to grease em. Hadn't had a problem until today. I busted off a grease zerk on the left lower ball joint...
So, now what? There is a gapping hole left in its place now and I suddenly am worried about it.
Anybody have any ideas what I should do here? I won't have to replace the whole ball joint will I? I know that most grease zerks unscrew but this one looks a little different. I also saw a small spring come out with this grease zerk as well. Looked a lot like the detent springs used on an AR15 lower parts kit
Anyhow, anybody have any ideas where I go next with this?
Thanks for any help anybody wants to give me!
