ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for a ball joint assembly includes a plurality of arms. The arms are movable between a retracted position and an extended position in which the arms can be manually grasped to pull the cover off of the ball joint assembly. The cover is one piece and has a side wall with cylindrical sections and an end wall. The arms are mounted on the end wall. When the arms are to be moved from the retracted position to the extended position, the end wall of the cover is pressed against the end of the ball stud to flex the end wall and move the arms from the retracted position to the extended position.
