The 2.63" Heavy Duty Ballistic Joint is manufactured to be the ultimate in durability and ease of use. Using Nylatron GS races with stainless steel bearings, these joints are smooth, long lasting and quiet. The 2.63" Ballistic Joint uses no snap rings to retain the races, instead the housing is machined from an oversized piece of steel which adds a much greater resistance to splitting. The opposite side uses a threaded spanner nut and set screw. Any play that might develop over time can be removed by adjusting the spanner nut.  Designed to be a drop-in replacement for lower control arms on TJ / XJ jeeps using the 9/16" bore. Also available is a 5/8" bore for added reliability and versatility. For those seeking a 3/4" bore, check out our 3.0" Ultra Duty Ballistic Joint. The Ballistic Joint is fully rebuidable and is the strongest joint on the market of it's kind. Offers 30 degrees total misalignment with a 9/16" ball.

 

We have upgraded the Nylatron race from injection molded to billet (solid) for longer service life and greater impact resistance.
