Ball joints need-a-fixin'.......
Hey all,
There's a bunch of slop in my right front wheel. It seems the lower right ball joint decided to drops it's ball....now, since I'm replacing that one, should I do the other side as well, just to be safe? It won't pass inspection with ****ty b-joints so, preemptive strike on the other side.
Any and all info and advice would be greatly appreciated,...thank you much!!

Might as well replace all 4 while you have it apart. They don't cost that much and seeing as how you have to take it apart anyhow, why not? It made a big difference with mine.

I bought Moog from rockauto.com for a reasonable price. I can't remember what it was and I'm having trouble with traffic on my internet service provider at present so you'll have to check yourself. My WJ wandered all over the place and the lowers squeaked when it got bitter cold. The difference was like night and day once I got them replaced.
