When you watch the front axle (vehicle started) and you turn the wheels left and right, the front axle moves just a little to the left and right. Is this normal, should their be a little play when steering or is the axle to be 100% rigid and not move at all?
When the wheel is turned, I can see the dana44 move just a little to the left and right.
I have a bad ball joint that is making some noise when turning, I was looking for the noise and witnessed this.
That sucks, that's the 2nd track bar in 3 years... I can see the ball joint on the track bar move in and out where it bolts to the frame, good call. Hope that's all it is - hard to believe the entire front axles stability rides on one ball joint (track bar) lol.
