The reason UWS catalogs a part like this one at all is the same reason its boxes are worth buying: a tool box is a long-lived thing bolted to a working truck, and the pieces that actually wear out are the handle, the lock, the gas strut, the gasket and the cables. UWS keeps those available as individual service parts instead of treating a worn latch as the end of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ball stud is the socket the gas strut clips onto. It is a small part that carries the whole load of the lid every time it opens, and a worn or snapped stud leaves you with a lid that will not stay up even though the strut is fine. Replacing the stud is often the actual fix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrestige Truck is an authorized UWS dealer. This is a genuine UWS service part in factory packaging, not an aftermarket copy, so it carries the fit and the finish the original part left the plant with.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935823999220,"sku":"UWSUWS-BALL-STUD","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4784\/0244\/files\/uws-uws-ball-stud-hero-front-three-quarter-studio-view-on-white.webp?v=1785302845","url":"https:\/\/prestigetruck.com\/products\/uws-replacement-truck-tool-box-ball-stud-uws-ball-stud","provider":"Prestige Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
