What is the Ball Joint Front all about?

Ball joints are a part of your vehicle's suspension system that connect the steering knuckles to the control arms. A ball joint is essentially a flexible ball and socket that allows the suspension to move and, at the same time, the wheels to steer. Cars and trucks will have multiple ball joint assemblies depending on their type of suspension system.

Like any other suspension component, ball joints will eventually wear out and become loose. Excessive play in the joint can affect wheel alignment and tire wear. Loose joints can also cause suspension noise (typically a "clunking" sound when going over a bump). If a ball joint fails, the suspension can collapse, causing a loss of control of the vehicle.

Keep in mind:

Depending on the suspension design, ball joints can be found either in the front or the rear. The vehicle may need to be taken to a shop for wheel alignment after this service. Mobile mechanics do not have the machinery to align wheels.

How it's done:

  • Remove the wheels.
  • Remove the control arm(s).
  • Remove and replace ball joints.
  • Check the entire suspension system for any problems.

Our recommendation:

When applicable, make sure the ball joints are lubricated during a major service.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Ball Joint Front?

  • Clunking noise from front tires.
  • Steering wheel shakes.
  • Car moves to the right or left, especially going over the bumps.
  • Vehicle tires have abnormal wear.

How important is this service?

The ball joint connects the control arm to the steering knuckle. As the wheels – and therefore the steering knuckles – move, the ball joints help the suspension – and therefore the control arm – stay steady. And as the suspension moves, the ball joints help the wheels steer. When the ball joints fail, the suspension and wheels have a hard time working independent of each other. This puts unnecessary strain on each component, which can alter wheel alignment and severely damage the suspension.

Ford E-350 Super Duty V8-5.4L - Pre-purchase Car Inspection - San Antonio, Texas
Back Info: Requested a pre-purchase inspection for a used vehicle at a large dealership. This was my very first experience with YOUR MECHANIC and I wasn't sure what I should expect or receive. The Service: I have some basic knowledge of vehicles (used), enough to know what I want, need and require, and where the pitfalls can be, however not versed on all types of vehicles. I say this because Gustavo showed his deep knowledge through the entire service. Yes, this is to be expected yet sometimes there are mechanics that do not have that level of experience with every Type of vehicle. Gustavo does, and he connects the dots quickly and explains things impeccably. Gustavo has a real passion for this! All while fielding my random questions regarding different areas that he wasn't currently involved in testing. (I was not trying to be annoying ... honestly. Just very curious.) He performed the inspection, fielded all of my questions, collaborated well with every concern brought to his attention, and maintained his report steps and tempo like a Champ! Let's just say we this, after spending the appointment time with him I trusted his experience so much that I ended up making the purchase with the test drive //only// done by him ( I rode shot-gun). That is //huge// for me (even thinking about not even test driving it myself would have seemed crazy to me) so that alone should tell you the level of confidence that had grown over the appointment time. He was able to diagnose a few key areas that I would need to pay focused attention to and provided a quote right there so that I not only knew what I was getting into but I was also able to use that information to negotiate favorably the price of the vehicle. I will be booking a follow-up service for those areas with him in about a month or so.
