STABILIZER LINK BALL JOINT BREAKAWAY 
TORQUE CHECK

Required Special Tool:

• MB990326: Preload Socket

1. After shaking the ball joint stud several times, install the nut 

to the stud and use special tool MB990326 to measure the 
breakaway torque of the ball joint.

Standard value: 3.4 

 9.0 Nm (30  80 in-lb)

2. When the measured value exceeds the standard value, 

replace the stabilizer link.

3. When the measured value is lower than the standard value, 

check that the ball joint turns smoothly without excessive 
play. If so, it is possible to re-use that ball joint.

.

STABILIZER LINK BALL JOINT DUST COVER 
CHECK

1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by pushing it 

with your finger.

2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace the 

stabilizer link.

NOTE: Cracks or damage of the dust cover may cause 
damage to the ball joint.
