My lower ball joint on driver's side is gone, assuming other side is bad too. Pre-runner style tilt on front tires. Fixed a clunk sound in front end after stepping on the brakes with repairing tie rod end, still had a clunk there after the repair so pulled front tire off and I was able to jiggle the rotor/bearing/studs 1/8" up and down and saw all the movement was in lower joint.
I ordered the complete ball joint kit from Your Premiere Source for Ford Truck Parts | Powerstrokeshop.com $291 plus $47 s&h (got an oil filter and fuel filter also). My local parts shop wanted $300cdn a side for the same parts.
I still have to source a good ball joint press. Gotta do a dodge 3500 after I do mine so thought I'd just buy the damn tool. Going to check and see what www.princessauto.com has.
