Re: Upper Ball Joint Replacements

LongHair is spot on for sure. If the truck is at the shop, let them replace the ball joints. It will be so much easier since they need to be pressed out/pressed in. I carried my knuckle to a shop to do since I had the front end apart already.

Plus, it's nice to have someone else eyeball those front end parts and let you know if they need replacement. I replaced "everything" since I was already in it.
