Balljoint Question

[Loss4wrds]

put a pry bar between knuckle and arm, if it moves or has slack needs to be changed. Some times you can jack it up and push/pull on top and bottom of tire and check for slack. but doing this way slack could be wheel bearing and or ball joint.

It can be hard to tell a balljoint from a wheel bearing, But a Clunk when turning, stopping accel. 'wobbly' steering or clunking over bumps (the bumps is what i felt with a wheel bearing) the originals are rivited in replacements are bolted in

I gotcha. Mine are riveted in, so definitely originals.
