Black Ops Machine Polaris Heavy Duty Ball Joint

Black Ops Machine Polaris Heavy Duty Ball Joint

These are the heaviest-duty Polaris XP1000 ball joints you can find on the market. The housing and support cup as well as the stud are made from 4340 chromoly and 300m steel, respectively. The dust boots are made from CR/Neoprene, and the adjustment plate cap is 6061 aluminum.

The ball joints are fully adjustable and rebuildable –– allowing them to be fully disassembled, cleaned, and re-greased to ensure you can keep riding longer, faster, and harder with the minimal amount of long-term maintenance possible.

While we do always recommend replacing all of your Polaris XP1000 ball joints at the same time, we sell them individually.

There’s nothing worse than snapping a lower ball joint on your Polaris, and our Heavy Duty Polaris Ball Joint is here to fix that. Whether you drove it too hot into a curb, smacked a rock, or went full-send mode and landed a jump too aggressively, an OEM ball joint for side-by-sides is prone to failure. Fortunately, Black Ops Machine has the high-quality replacement Heavy Duty Ball Joint to resolve this common issue.

Our HD ball joints are engineered for the off-road enthusiast who doesn’t have time for broken OEM suspension parts. This heavy-duty ball joint replacement part follows Polaris OEM fitment standards, with upgraded materials and precision manufacturing standards to hold up to constant abuse.

Black Ops Machine solves common Polaris ball joint issues by using 4340 chromoly and 300m steel on the housing, support cup, and stud. The dust boots are upgraded with CR/Neoprene, with a 6061-aluminum designed adjustment plate cap.

While we strongly prescribe to the “fix it all at the same time” mentality when it comes to replacing ball joints, we sell this product individually. So – to avoid further ball joint failure – replace them all at the same time – cool?
