how hard can ball joints be? come down to GA and maybe me buddy and i could do them! lol

LOL might have to take you up on that

Don't like hearing your '08 having these problems! Sucks though, get it all fixed before it gets worse.

yep, it was definitely a surprise to me, only 47k on her right now. Thought it best to get all that fixed while she was apart. So glad she was squeaking so I could find out all this and get it fixed before something really bad happened.

LOL might have to take you up on that

wed probably do it for just price of parts too. its a good experience for the future.

 

[bigbadram1500]

oh yeah, it definitely would be. Knowing how to do that stuff yourself saves alot of money.

 

[ROKTMAN]

Good luck with it Wendy!

 

[bigbadram1500]

Thanks, I need it LOL

 

[bigtigga84]

So did it fix the squeak?

 

[bigbadram1500]

Yep, it did. I haven't driven it yet but hubby said that the squeak is gone.

 

[0212353]

it damn well better be!

 

[bigbadram1500]

LOL that is for sure. He said that he thought he heard something coming from the rear now tho. Prolly the rear ones that need replaced now. Ugh.

And she is still leaking oil after tightening up the filter, so going to have to have that looked at. I really don't need this right now.

 

[KGBIGCOUNTRY]

The gasket on the filter has prob been damaged and a filter change will fix that. Sorry to hear about the rest, was almost a front end rebuild.

 

[bigbadram1500]

Yeah, I'm hoping that's all it is, just a bad filter. The oil wasn't down any so it must not be losing any significant amount.

 

[bigbadram1500]

Getting the cv shaft replaced tomorrow. The one they put on yesterday blew out for some reason. Had grease all over the fender wall last night. Then it goes to get an alignment. Not sure about the oil issue yet. Saw the leak in the driveway tonight when I got home.

 

[iSlacker816]
