bad ball joints?

[mustang50v8]

i am 93% sure that my problem is the driver side ball joint, i am just making sure i am right

just this week i started hearing a popping noise when i would hit bumps in the road. then just yesterday it started squealing whenever i turned the wheel.

if my problem is the ball joint which ones should i pick up? the steeda one? or is there a better/cheaper option because i am pretty low on funds lately.

No Steeda. Just get some replacements from an AP store. MOOG. No China cheap crap. Moog is awesome.

it doesnt look like autozone sells them, thats too bad i get a part discount at autozone, but advance does....and they are only 53 bucks each.


thanks!!

53 bucks each for ball joints. sorry man that sounds a little high since i bought some 2 days ago from a local auto parts store for half that price. might want check some more

ya but that was for the Moog ones. steedas are like 130 bucks for a pair and i saw moog's elsewhere for like 65. i just dont want them to prematurely wear out due to the modified suspension geometry.

you mights get cheap brands for less but $50 is about right for moog
