GM Front 10 bolt Ball joint adjuster sleeve socket?

[MadOgre]

Does anyone know the exact name and a part # for the adjusting socket for the top ball joint adjuster sleeve for a Corporate 10 bolt front axle?

Is it the same socket for a GM Dana 44 front axle ?

Online I only find ones for Dana 44s is it the same socket I need for the 10 bolt?

While Im at it does anyone know the correct part # for the ball joint press for a 10 bolt?

OTC Tool part # 7080 for the sleeve. But does the 10 bolt use the same sleeve for the ball joint? I thought it used caster shims.

Ball Joint press is the same no matter the front end. I linked one previous that I ordered from Amazon and had zero issues with it. Did both my ball joints and ujoints.

Good to know about the press. Yes the 10 bolt uses an adjuster sleeve as well. And I think I found it as well on amazon while I was looking at your link you posted. Makes life simpler. They have the ball joints too !

Now Im wondering Moog vs Raybestos ??? For ball joints. Do the ball joints come with the sleeve cause I cant seem to find it by itself ?

Make sure you check Rock auto on prices as well. I ordered my front end parts from there and saved a lot of money. I saved like $100 just on the ball joints by mail ordering them instead of buying locally. I also used their discount code too.

Yep sure will thanks Don

Yeah sleeves should come with the ball joints.

 

[MadOgre]

Awesome

Those Raybestos ball joints look pretty shiny ?

I had to warranty my first set of balljoints from rock auto cause the uppers were wrong.

And glad I did because the Moog ones had far better boots. Oh FYI Moog dust covers are a bitch to get on but I found I could use the ball joint tool and whack them on

I bought a combo of ac delco/raybestos. They both were brass colored with blue boots. They came with the sleeves and o used that OTC socket, it worked great!
