Product Description
Auto Spare Parts Ball Joint Kit OE 31317819 Outside Steering Crossbar Ball Joint for Auto Parts V40
This OE-grade ball joint kit (specifically for the outside steering crossbar) is exclusively tailored for Auto Parts V40 (2013+) and V40 Cross Country models. As a critical component of the vehicle’s steering and suspension system, it adheres to Auto Parts’s original standards for structural strength, rotational flexibility, and fit—ensuring seamless compatibility with the V40’s steering crossbar and stable control performance.
Core Components & Functions
Core Component
The kit includes 1 outside steering crossbar ball joint (main part) and essential mounting hardware (e.g., lock nuts, dust boots). The ball joint itself features a hardened steel ball pin and a durable polymer or rubber socket, with a corrosion-resistant coating on the outer housing to withstand road salt and moisture.
Core Functions
- Steering Transmission: Connects the steering crossbar to the wheel hub, transmitting steering force from the steering system to the wheels—ensuring precise control and responsive handling when turning.
- Suspension Flexibility: Allows for rotational and angular movement between the steering crossbar and hub, adapting to road undulations (e.g., bumps, potholes) without affecting steering stability.
- Wear Protection: The dust boot prevents dirt, gravel, and moisture from entering the ball joint socket, reducing internal wear and extending the component’s service life.
Compatible Vehicles
| Applicable Models | Applicable Years |
|---|---|
| V40 (13-) | 2013–2019 |
| V40 Cross Country | 2013–2019 |
Installation & Usage Notes
Confirm the kit is for the outside steering crossbar (inside/outside ball joints have different dimensions—do not interchange). Installation requires professional tools (e.g., ball joint press, torque wrench) and adherence to the V40 service manual:
- Safely lift the vehicle and remove the wheel; disconnect the old ball joint from the steering crossbar and hub.
- Press the new ball joint into the steering crossbar using a ball joint press, then secure it with the included lock nut (torque to 40–50 N·m per Auto Parts specs).
- Reattach the ball joint to the hub, install the dust boot, and ensure no gaps exist to prevent debris ingress.
- After installation, perform a wheel alignment to correct steering geometry—misalignment may cause uneven tire wear or loose handling.
Inspect the ball joint every 10,000 km: Replace immediately if there is excessive play (detectable via steering looseness) or damaged dust boots (exposes internal parts to wear).
