What position is this ball joint?
It is a front upper ball joint for the listed applications.
Why is it listed as .005 in oversized?
It's built with a slightly larger outer diameter so it seats firmly in a receptacle that has worn oversized, and it is designed for a tight fit.
Can this ball joint be greased?
Yes. It has a greaseable socket that lets fresh lubricant flush out contaminants, which helps reduce corrosion and wear.
What are signs a ball joint may need replacing?
Steering play, clunking or knocking noises, and uneven tire wear can be signs. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing, since these symptoms can have other sources.
