American Iron | 2000-2013 Dodge Ram 2500 / 2000-2012 3500 (AAM) Ball Joint Set - Oversized Cup

Tired of replacing your Cummins or Power Wagons balljoints one after the other? Tired of the quirky steering characteristics? Ready for an actual solution with a solid explanation as to why it’s better?…..here it is!

The AAM is plagued by something different than any other knuckle like the Ford or Jeep….the uppers and lowers don’t rotate on the same axis and this is where problems start. In the factory configuration the lower joint misaligns as it rotates and the upper joint telescopes because it’s not a balljoint at all, but a greased shank inside a steel sleeve. The Delete System changes this dynamic. 

- Custom machined press-fit upper & lower cups

- Custom spec’d 4140 heat-treated hardware with Grade 8 nylock nuts 

- 7/8” Teflon-lined bearings for smooth operation

- 3D printed plastic dust cap and Viton seal head to keep debris from tops of each assembly with open bottom to allow any moisture to evacuate from joint.

Cup Size Note: Choose the standard size cup if your axle has had minimal balljoint replacements.  Choose the oversized cup (.008” over) if your axle has had several balljoint replacements.  The AAM axle is prone to wallowing out of the hole in the inner C with each balljoint replacement.
