Notes:
- Teraflex recommend Ball Joints w/out Knurls as they will not score the inner knuckle & open up the bore.
- Teraflex also offer Ball Joint w/ Knurls for ball joints that have a loose press fit in the inner knuckle due to repeated ball joint replacement or if knurled ball joints have been installed in the past.
