6.10 Ball Stud Locks
Under abnormal or extreme loading conditions using very aggressive moves, or in the case of
a collision, it is possible for the ball studs to separate from the ball joint sockets.
NOTE: In normal use, this will not happen.
If you are planning on extremely aggressive moves or extreme loading conditions, you may
want to install ball stud locks. These attach to the ends of the outer arms, and trap the ball, to
prevent the ball studs from separating from their sockets.
A ball stud lock kit (16 locks) is available as part number 09824-000.
The ball stud lock consists of slightly more than a half-circle of hard plastic that slides over
the end of the ball joint socket. They can be installed and removed without tools. See the fol-
lowing figures.
