when i brought it back to o'rileys they measured it and it was off, im not sure by how much but the micometer had room to play! i also called federal-mogle and they said they have never heard of it either. one of the guys in tech support said and i quote "maybe one of the jurnals for the grease to go to the boot is clogged":lol88: if its new what is in there to clog it?????:lol88:

When I do mine, I'm having the dealer do it. One, warranty (12 month, 12,000 miles), two I don't have time to do mine, three I don't have the tools. To me, the $1500 or so it's gonna cost is better than having me fight it and saving the $700 in labor.

I'll be close to 140,000 miles on mine when it goes in.


i just realized this but are they charging you $800 for 4 ball joints????? because my total cost was $280 (i get a military discount) so your price is about $320 and if labor is $700 there taking about $480 and sticking it in their pocket. just thought i would let you know so you dont get screwed.:c:
