MOHAWK I see that your in allentown Pa i used to live up there in easton. Get out your phone book and look up Jeff's automotive in palmer pa on freemansburg ave. ask for jeff. see what he recommends for ball joints or why they are going bad so fast.
If there is anyone i would trust with my truck it would be him. The guy is great with this stuff, and if dealers have him do some of there work because they cant figure it out he has to be good. Oh and he is very reasonable on price. he had my truck for 2 weeks trying to figure out why it would intermittedly shut off then start rite up and run for another hr and shut off. found out that the blatter in the fuel pump assembly had a hole in it. with all the time he put into my truck to figure it out cost me 500.00 to fix the problem with a new mopar fuel pump (updated version)

Yeah..i know. dont say it, they were supposed to be good. Chalk that one up to inexperience of a teenager, really sad thing is my mom was there with me and she said go with it..But then again she doesnt know cars for poop. Like i said they were really good ball joints (supposidly) so yeah, were desperate times. Haha actually i needed them to get back to college, so holy crap that was before xmas, these things really are **** WTF.. It was a overnight job cuz i had class in morning.
