Just curious but what were and what could these be used for?

Hi, many times the machined surface of the balls are pitted deep from rust. Once pitted, the wiper seal can't wipe clean as you turn so it can drip grease and oil. The pits can also wear out the rubber seal prematurely from the rough surface. I have never seen the balls come up for sale and shipping the whole housing can be expensive. The ball and tube are pressed into the housing and welded from the factory so grinding the weld allows you to remove and replace the ball without replacing the whole housing. If that is being done on a SOA rig it's a perfect time to do the "cut & turn" operation to correct the steering geometry.

Those 3 position shock mounts were a disaster added by a PO of the rig that the axle was under

Ah yes the shock mounts are what threw me off.
