ABSTRACT:
A ball link assembly in which a link member has a semi-spherical cavity formed in each end for rotatably receiving a respective complementary spherical bearing ball formed, preferably, of a ceramic material. Each ball is freely retained by a ball retainer formed of spring steel, the ball retainer extending just over the equator of the ball and mounting to the link by a sideways snap-on action. In one form, the link is designed to accommodate an existing link retainer which is fixed internally of the injector assembly, while in a second form the link assembly is retained by a link retainer which is externally tethered.
