ball joint boots?
Ever since i lowered my 4x4 ive been having problems with the boot on the drivers side upper ball joint staying on because of the different angle and i keep having to shove it back on and grease gets all over the inside of my rims. Is there a easy fix? Should i get some polyurethane boots?

Re: ball joint boots?
you lowered a 4wd truck? The best fix would be to raise it back up and purchase a 2wd truck to lower. less headaches

Re: ball joint boots?
my bad, even if i did don't 2wds have ball joints too? I was wondering if the polyurathane boots were more flexible then the rubber ones.

Re: ball joint boots?
Yes they have ball joints, but they don't have that pesky front wheel drive axle which allows for more movement.
