Keep your front suspension tight and your steering responsive with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Ball Joint BJ82495RD, a severe-duty Dodge Ram 1500 ball joint from Dorman's rugged-duty (RD) chassis line. This front lower ball joint installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011-2018 Ram 1500, and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic, connecting the lower control arm to the steering knuckle so the suspension can travel and steer.

  • Rugged-duty (RD) design: engineered for demanding service such as off-road work, heavy hauling, towing, and emergency vehicles like ambulances and rescue trucks.
  • Quenched-and-tempered steel housing: uses quenched and tempered steel rather than simple normalized steel, plus an exclusive protective coating for added durability and corrosion resistance.
  • Hardware included: the necessary hardware is supplied and also carries a corrosion-resistant coating.
  • Pre-loaded lubrication: where applicable, each joint is pre-loaded with premium grease in specially designed grease boots with molded-in standoffs to help keep lubrication in place.

A worn Ram 1500 lower ball joint can cause clunking over bumps, loose steering, and uneven tire wear; if a failed ball joint is the cause, this replaces it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this ball joint fit a 2014 Ram 1500?

Yes. The BJ82495RD front lower ball joint is a direct-fit replacement for 2011-2018 Ram 1500 trucks, so it covers 2014 Ram 1500 ball joints. Confirm your specifics in the Buyer's Guide tab.

What does the RD designation mean?

RD stands for "rugged duty." Dorman engineers this line for severe-duty service such as off-road work, heavy hauling, towing, and emergency-vehicle applications.

Is mounting hardware included?

Yes. The necessary hardware is included and is also finished with a corrosion-resistant coating.

What are signs my ball joint may need replacing?

Clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven front tire wear can point to a worn ball joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing.

Should I replace both sides at once?

Front lower ball joints tend to wear as a pair, so replacing the left and right sides together is good practice for balanced, even suspension wear.
