Anybody had luck getting BALL JOINTS for prior 1989 Trailboss 250 4X4 (s).
I have two a 1987 & 1988 both nice --------- except for Ball Joints.
Any help would be appreciated.
The ball joints are a type that looks similiar to a TIE ROD END ------ not your ordinary Ball Joint.
Maybe this was a flawed design and Polaris is just pushing it aside.
This could help me make a decision on what brand not to BUY !!!!

Try 15/16/17/18 is this what you need? Steering assembly. If so you didn't look very hard.

---- with part # 62 under steering.
The 1989 year is when they changed the design to a BALL JOINT similiar to what is used on cars/trucks --------- the 1987 & 1988 were more like a " TIE ROD END " .
--------
I was thinking maybe of machining some type of adapter to use the -- 1989 and on type Ball Joint ----- but thats not a very simple project --- because not only devising away to mount BALL JOINT to the bottom of the front strut assemblies --- you also have to change the monting to the front lower A arms !!!!!
So thats why I've yell'd "HELP"

Hi jimmypsp700 , That is the BALLJOINT for the new style type.
The 1987 & 1988 Trailboss 250 4X4's I have require a BALLJOINT that looks like a TIE - ROD END !
Thanks for the info - I will probably ask them if they know anyone making them .

Can't you use one of these with a bolt through it?
