I noticed the same thing but i thought it mentioned the lowers are non-greasable? ANyways I am spending a little more on McQuay Norris BJ's, they seem to be a good quality, well see. Good luck.

It's more important to worry about getting grease in that contamination. Get the greaseable ones. Also, Dynatrac is making ball joints and they are rebuildable. Interesting, and worth checking into.

I bought mine from the same place, and the lowers are greaseable. That's strange.

I was told that XRF had issues with the greaseable one with the dirt getting into the joints, They took out the zirt fitting with the new and improved set and they have had great luck with them.

Unhappy grease fittings

i just received my XRF ball joints in the mail and when i opened them up,i was SHOCKED to find NO grease fittings on either uppers or lowers.I hope they know what they are doing.i plan on contacting the company to inquire as to why they are omitting them.
