Upper and lower ball joints

[Vince Coshenet]

I took my ST to Farm and Fleet to have an alignment done because I was having uneven tire wear on the fronts. Turns out the ball joints are bad. They quoted me a little over $1000 to replace them. :cry: This seems really high to me. Anyone else have experience with this repair?

That's high if you have mechanical ability then can do it for allot cheeper yourself. The joints run like 60.00 each so 240.00 and you can rent the tool to do it. If you have factory ball joints I have a brand new Moog upper passenger side I will sell 25.00 shipped let me know.

Some members have paid, $600 to $750. Including labor.

If you do it your self don't forget to get a frontend alinement afterwords and Firestone gave me a quote of 270.00 for upper ball joint make sure your new ones have grease fitings factory ones don't

 

[Vince Coshenet]

My mechanic said it would be around $600. It's something I would be willing to tackle myself. So, of course, the next question is which brand do you guys recommend?

 

[Vic Sorlie]

I'd go with Moog or NAPA.

 

[Alan Peters]

I paid $630 for Moog uppers and lowers on both sides 3 years ago.

Do you still have the Moog upper passenger side arm? I am interested.
