I've heard on here that these SUVs eat ball joints. But I wouldn't have thought at 46,000 miles. So can I get some recomendations about the best ball joints to replace them with? Which last longest, or are the strongest? And what ones to stay away from? Thanks for all of your help!

 

Try Power Performance.

Blazers do not have lube for life ball joints. Lube them up like every second or third oil change

 

I understand that. But I can't help what the previous owner did or didn't do. I do plan on staying on top of greasing and maintence. I was more wondering about brands, or things to look for, for the best replacement part. Could I get the website for the power performance you speak of? I couldn't find anything helpful on a basic search.

 

I have never had a problem with Moog suspension parts and have read that they are the ones to have. Currently, mine are the cheapies from Advanced Auto and have been for the last 15k miles.

 

Thanks swartlkk. I've bought cheapies before, like ten years ago, for my old LeMans. They lasted a very short time before breaking, then I got good ones, and that worked great. Thanks for your time.

 

Sorry Big Brett, I did not know you were the second owner. Just passing along some info.

Here is the link.
