Got the Monaco back from shop after front end rebuild. Had everything replaced with Moog pieces except lower ball joints. These were still tight so left them in place.
Steering is now nice and tight with no rattle or knock while navigating Michigan roads.
Question #1
Do lower ball joints wear less than the rest of front end components or faster and maybe these were replaced before?
Question #2
Anyone else run into shops that cannot align these cars. This shop alignment equipment would not fit on rear wheels do to the small rear wheel well openings. Have to take it up to my Belle tire guy. Yeah, i know but this guy is pretty sharp. He actually knows how to adjust the t-bars!
Just curious.
