99 Ford Ranger Ball Joints?

Question

I was told that I need to have my lower ball joints replaced. I am looking to take a trip from Houston to Colorado soon. Should I have them replaced? What might happen if I dont? Should I do it myself? Should I have someone else? How much should it cost? Anything will help guys.

Answer 1

You shoud get them replaced before you go. The last thing you would want is to have the ball joint break going down the highway which will be an interesting ride. But it will probably cost about $250 to get fixed with labor
