2904300-G08
This ball joint (P/N: 2904300-G08) is engineered for a perfect fit and reliable performance in specific Great Wall Motor vehicles. Manufactured from high-grade, forged carbon steel and treated with a advanced anti-corrosion coating, it boasts a minimum tensile strength of 550 MPa, ensuring exceptional durability under stress and in harsh road conditions.
Rigorous quality control, including salt spray testing exceeding 120 hours, guarantees long-term resistance to rust and wear. Its precision-molded bearing and reinforced housing are designed to minimize steering play and vibration, providing exact wheel alignment, responsive handling, and even tire wear. This part offers a direct OEM replacement, restoring your vehicle's front suspension to its original integrity and safety standards.
Unlike cheaper cast alternatives, this ball joint is CNC-machined from a single piece of forged carbon steel. This forging process aligns the metal's grain structure, creating a component with superior tensile strength (rated ≥550 MPa) and exceptional impact resistance. It is engineered to withstand the constant stress of potholes, curbs, and rough road conditions without failing. This results in a dramatically longer service life and enhanced safety, providing peace of mind for drivers and reducing the risk of premature failure.
Exposure to water, salt, and road chemicals is the primary cause of ball joint seizure and wear. Our 2904300-G08 is protected by a multi-layer zinc-nickel electroplating coating, verified to withstand over 120 hours of salt spray testing (ASTM B117 standard). This robust corrosion defense ensures the stud remains free within the socket, allowing for easy installation and removal even after years of service. It prevents rust-jacking that can compromise structural integrity, guaranteeing reliable performance in all climates.
The internal bearing is crafted from a high-density, fiber-reinforced polymer composite. This material is specifically formulated to maintain optimal hardness and a low coefficient of friction across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +120°C). It provides superior noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) damping compared to metal-on-metal designs. The result is smoother, quieter steering response, reduced feedback through the steering wheel, and protection against sudden, noisy failure.
This component is not a universal fit; it is a precise OEM-quality replacement engineered to match the original part's exact dimensions, taper, and mounting points. Every unit undergoes a stringent 12-point quality inspection, including torque-to-failure tests and angular movement checks. This ensures a perfect, hassle-free fit without modification, restoring the vehicle's original steering geometry, alignment accuracy, and tire wear patterns for optimal performance and safety.

Here are specific application scenarios of Ball Joint:
Recommend this part for vehicles entering high-mileage service (typically 80,000 - 120,000 km). Proactively replacing worn ball joints during scheduled suspension overhauls prevents accelerated tire wear and maintains precise wheel alignment. This proactive approach is a key service offering for workshops, helping customers avoid costlier repairs down the line and ensuring vehicle safety and handling remain optimal.
This ball joint is the direct solution for specific customer complaints indicating suspension wear. These symptoms include excessive vibration felt in the steering wheel, a vehicle that "wanders" or pulls to one side, and audible clunking or popping noises when going over bumps or turning. Installing this OEM-spec part restores tight steering response, eliminates noise, and corrects alignment for a safer, more confident drive.
Use this component to address clear safety concerns resulting from a worn joint. Key failure signs include visible looseness in the suspension when lifted and inspected, and uneven or excessive tire wear on the inner or outer edges. Replacing the joint restores the critical connection between the steering knuckle and control arm, eliminating dangerous play and ensuring proper wheel contact with the road.
This ball joint is an essential component in any full front suspension rebuild. It is designed to work in harmony with other new components like control arms, tie rods, and shock absorbers. Using a matched-quality part ensures balanced performance and longevity across the entire new suspension system, providing a like-new driving feel and protecting the investment in other new parts.
Securely lift the vehicle and remove the wheel for clear access to the suspension assembly.
Safely separate the old ball joint from the steering knuckle and control arm using the correct tools to avoid damage to surrounding components.
Thoroughly clean the mounting surfaces to ensure a perfect fit for the new joint.
Install the new 2904300-G08 ball joint, tightening all fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer's specified torque values. This is critical for safety and component longevity.
Finally, always perform a professional wheel alignment to restore factory handling and prevent premature tire wear.
