Front End Alignment Basics Ball Joints
Ball joints should be checked for wear by supporting the Mustang at the framerail and applying pressure by moving the tire upward. If you feel clunking (play), the upper ball joint is most likely the culprit. Upper ball joints wear out much faster than lowers. Lower ball joints are always replaced with the lower control arm, which must be serviced as a unit. View Related Article
