TrueDrive REPD282312 Front Upper Ball Joint OEM Replacement

The TrueDrive REPD282312 is a front upper ball joint engineered as a direct OEM replacement for Ram full-size pickup trucks. Designed to restore factory suspension geometry and steering precision, this press-in ball joint is a driver-or-passenger-side interchangeable unit, making it a versatile single-part solution for either side of the front axle.

This ball joint serves as a pivot point between the upper control arm and the steering knuckle, allowing controlled articulation of the front suspension. Worn or failed upper ball joints can cause clunking noises, uneven tire wear, and loose or wandering steering — replacing with a quality OEM-grade unit restores safe, predictable handling.

Key Features:

• Direct OEM replacement — matches factory fit, form, and function
• Front upper position — driver or passenger side (RH = LH interchangeable)
• Press-in mounting type for secure, stable installation
• Greaseable design with zerk fitting for ongoing maintenance and extended service life
• Includes castle nut and cotter pin for proper, secure installation
• Manufactured to meet OEM specifications for suspension geometry and load handling

OEM & Cross-Reference Part Numbers:

• Mopar / Chrysler: 55366652AE, 55366653AE
• Duralast: FA2308

Professional installation is recommended. A wheel alignment should be performed after replacing any suspension ball joint to ensure proper tire wear and steering response.
