Default Ball joints

Can anyone tell me the average life of ball joints in a Disco 3 ? It's been regularly serviced in a dealership garage and driven in a reasonable manner and whilst occasionally been off road, nothing drastic

Well the ball joints are non greasable, so dealer serviced or not makes no matter.

how long will they last under normal conditions? 100,000 miles or so I guess.

The biggest factor to how long they will last is the type of driving you do and if you hit the trails hard or not.
Why do you ask, are you having a problem with your truck , if so what?
