ABSTRACT:
A ball joint link includes a ball stud having a stud and a ball, a cap mounted on the ball, and a rod. The ball defines a raised annular stem which fits inside a tubular portion of the rod such that the ball stud, the cap and the rod form a self-supporting sub-assembly. This sub-assembly is then placed within a mold, and a molded body is formed around the sub-assembly. A strengthening element can be disposed in the molded body around the ball stud to increase pull out resistance.
