I bought upper and lower ball joints for my 92 cherokee payed 200 bucks. Put them on and found my lower pass side was missing a boot they told me I had to pull it again to get a new one becase they dont carry boots. So had to pull the upper to pull the lower how nice. Then got them all back in put my hub shafts and everything back together to find out the shaft hits their 90% bent grease fittings. So I take the shaft back out of both sides to tighten them as tight as I pos can to find out they still rub and on top of that even though they have a 90% bend they have so little room you still have to pull the shaft to grease them. I went to look for other grease fittings and there is no point becase if you buy strait or 180% you still are going to have to pull the shafts.

Don’t know where you’re at, but if you have a NAPA distro center/store front where you are go there. I’ve never had that kind of problem from them.
By the way, that whole % sign instead of degrees threw me for a loop.
You had me wondering what a 90 percent bend looks like.

advance sells moog chassis parts. high quality parts.
some vehicles have hard to access fittings. it’s no the fault of the balljoint manufactures. it’s the company that disigned your vehicle.
chevy S/10 4×4’s are the same way. impossible to grease. that’s why you’ll find a bunch of them with broken lower ball joints.
