My 13 year old 1500 is wearing out. 246k miles. I thought it needed aligning and the shop called and said it needs all new ball joints. They are all original. Should it cost $900-1000 for the four?

 

????no....i did my drivers side with Moogs (like 140 for pair) and cost me 60 bucks to have them installed.

so 400 would be a good price

 

For a dealer with factory parts?
If yes seems a bit high, about right for a 2500 if a dealer is doing the work

 

My truck is a bit different but I bought all Moog parts to include all tie rods, bar ends and 4 ball joints off of EBay for $300...a freaking steal compared to what the stealership and local parts stores wanted. I'm currently installing them myself; a battle, but I will win. I also threw in a double shock steering stabilizer from skyjacker to help out with the 18" tires and steering.

 

go to napa not even close 400 to that like 150 bucks for all of them at the most and thats life time warrenty and i did them my self and yeah they are a pain in the *** sometimes

 

i live in tx and i can get them at advance auto parts for like 191.00 for all four and then a t a local shop 396 to install

 

Get them at rockauto.com.Best price anywhere.

 

well the 191 was for moog

 

That's not bad for the good moog ones.$900 is way to much.He didn't say if it was a 4x4.

 

It would help if you filled out your profile info so we'd know if your truck was 2 or 4 wheel drive. There's a difference in repair cost between the two.
