Honda Prelude Ball Joints

Your Honda Prelude’s ball joints are made up of studs and metal housings. The studs are designed to rotate around a pivot point while being encased within the housing imitating the structure of a human hip joint. Bearings can be manufactured from out of either metal or certain types of plastics. The socket comes packed with ball-bearing grease offering plenty of lubrication and keeping moisture and debris out. Ball joints feature almost completely silent operation while being engineered as sealed parts. If rubber boots fail, then water, dust, dirt, and sand can enter the ball joints thus leading to their accelerated wear and eventual failure.

Ball joints are intricate parts of your vehicle’s suspension that should be well-lubricated and sealed to offer a long service life. Some of the major signs of severe ball joint wear include the vehicle’s suspension getting loose, vibration during steering, strange noises coming from the front suspension, and so on. Besides that, worn out ball joints can make it fairly difficult for the wheels to be aligned properly. Inspect and replace worn out ball joints timely, with our online store being your number one provider of high-quality Honda Prelude ball joints & components.
