I am so ****ing pissed. I was driving the truck back from getting the windshield installed. I thought I saw a crack in the windshield so I pulled over to check it closer and just before I got stopped the lower ball joint snapped and the whole truck dropped pushing the wheel up into the fender. and slamming the lower control arm into the asphalt. luckly I was almost stopped and not running down the road at 55. That would have been ugly. I ran across the street to a Napa and pick one up, and changed in about a hour with a jack and a few sockets. ( thats gota be some kinda record) The good old RockAuto Ball joint completely separated. the ball and stud in the spindle and the socket still firmly in place on the control arm. Complete failure on the part of the manufacture. Im pissed but it could have been worse. I will be replacing all the ball joints I just cant trust them. Im so glad it didnt break with the wife driving.
