Steering Relief Ball Joint 6.8mm M4 Graphite (2 pcs) - XRAY 352666-G  [XR-352666-G]

Relief-style steering ball joint

This XRAY 352666-G ball joint is molded from a graphite composite to balance wear resistance with low friction. The relieved socket molding reduces contact points so the pivot ball can articulate with less binding, helping keep steering feel consistent under load and in dusty conditions.

The component accepts a 6.8mm pivot ball or ball stud and is supplied as a set of two pieces for standard left and right linkage installation. It is intended for RC linkage and ball cup holder use only, not for any full-size vehicle application.

Installation is simple: remove the worn ball cup from the turnbuckle or steering arm and press the replacement joint into the socket, keeping the mating ball clean and lightly lubricated if your setup requires it. When fitting, inspect end-play and confirm free rotation through the full travel to avoid binding that can harm steering response.

These joints are useful where you want steady articulation with reduced sticking in contaminated environments; they suit touring cars and similar RC platforms for general steering linkages and small adjustable rods.
