Ball Joint in Ford Ranger is one of the suspension and steering system that links the control arms to the steering knuckles. This design makes it possible to rotate the vehicle structure in different planes in order to respond to road challenges as well as steering instructions. Similar to other vehicles' ball joints, the Ford Ranger Ball Joint is ordinarily built of steel, with a bearing stud and socket coupled with a rubber boot to prevent contamination by dirt and to facilitate feeding of lubrication. For many years, the Ford Ranger models have traditionally adopted both loaded and unloaded ball joints whereby the loaded ball joints are able to support the weight of the vehicles while the unloaded ball joints play the role of ensuring that the vehicles are always well aligned without necessarily support the weight of the vehicles. Performance ball joints are also available that are adjustable depending on the changes in the suspension geometry especially buy modified vehicles. Some of the signs will include noise, misalignment, and abnormal tire wear, all of which will require replacement since they are critical areas that if not well maintained may compromise safety when driving.
