Development and research of methods for calculating the life of friction parts of a vehicle is an actual problem. Ball joints of a car suspension are one of the most responsible for reliability and safety friction unit of transport vehicles. In this paper the approaches to the computational and experimental assessment of the wear and reliability of the ball joint of a vehicle are proposed. The calculation of wear will be carried out based on the solution of the wear contact problem. The equilibrium condition, the wear law, and the geometric condition in the contact are taken as the basic equations. As a result, design formulas for wear and contact pressures have been proposed. A method for calculating the reliability function with determining the coefficients of variation of the wear parameters of ball joints is proposed. To assess the effectiveness of lubricants, a method for calculating wear parameters based on solving the inverse wear-contact problem is considered.
