What makes up the lower ball joint on a steering wheel?

The lower ball joint is what attaches the steering knuckle and control arm together. There are two pieces which make up the lower ball joint; a socket and ball. These pieces are inside of a rubber boot that is filled with lubricant. Basically, the lower ball joint allows the wheels and tires to be connected to the vehicle and its steering assembly.

Is the torsion bar firm on a Silverado?

The torsion bar is firm in the cross-member, but there is alot of movement and knocking in the connection where the cross-member attaches to the frame. The cross-member moves up and down when I lift the vehicle from belos. And since the rivets holding the bracket to the frame, I am assuming the bushing is worn.

Why do car ball joints need to be lubricated?

The lower ball joint usually takes the biggest hits and wears out first. Not only does it need to handle the load of the vehicle, but it also absorbs the shocks of potholes and other bone-jarring road hazards. It is for these reasons that ball joints should be lubricated and inspected according to proper service schedule intervals.

What kind of grease to use on car ball joints?

If the ball joint is capable of being greased, use only the grease that is recommended for the job. Some ball joints come lubricated for life and are therefore incapable of being greased – the paradox though is that they don’t usually live very long. Worn ball joints can be held accountable for clunks and sloppy steering.
