well guys. I did alittle maintance work on the stang today. I adjusted the brakes in the front stop it pulling to the left. at first i got them right, but with a low pedal. So i tightened them so now the pedal is really high, but is pulling to the right now. lol. I will have to get out there later when my arm stops hurting. I need to adjust my rear brakes because the car pitches forward alot during braking. I also tightened my upper control arm, which was loose on both sides............ I have noticed my driver side lower ball joint is bad, the wheel has a lot of play in it down there. So i have to replace that. Should i go ahead and replace both sides????? They all look new, but i think my wreck i had might have messed this one up. I JUST Ordered a monte carlo bar to install. Hopefully i'll get it and install it Friday. I CANT WAIT TO FEEL THE DIFFERENCE. lol. One last thing im doing, is im replacing my cracked and leaking rear gas hose that is in the trunk. It has been leaking for sometime now. now i got to look for ball joints.[:@]

 

Just get the Moog complete lower control arms, I think theyre only about $75ea. thats a bunch easier than diddling with the rivets that hold the bj in.

 

Rivets??? My lower ball joints are new. One of them just got screwed up in alittle wreck. It has bolts holding it on. So its not so bad.

 

I would say just go ahead and replace them both. You can do it in about an hour a side. You can buy the whole arm with the ball joint pressed in for about 70 bucks. Not really bad.

 

Ah, im getting so lazy. I might just take it to my tire place i get everything else done at. Do i need to compress the springs?? If i replace the lower arms, i am getting performance parts, nothing stock is going back on, if i got to replace it.
