Ball Joint failure, eyesore in the middle of iowa


Recommended Posts

after we got unstuck, we took eyesore into the nearest town until we could make our way back home. just as you would have it, the ball joint popped out, and tore the axle out of the DOJ. luckily we found 4 of the bearings under the car, one in the doj, and one 200 feet behind. i got it all back together, saving the axle, but the circlip is missong, and the boot is gone. but it got us back to coon rapids no problem.

 

i used some steel cable to tie the ball joint to keep it from popping out again. miles fox saves the day!

 

sorry tom never heard from me, was pulling his hair trying to locate his car, till it up and shows up in his driveway. i say get new ball joints!!!!
