...asks The War Wagon, after purchasing $720 worth of new lower ball joints for his Commander last week? :mad:
A couple of points:
1) My Jeep is a mall crawler. Yeah, I ain't PROUD of that, but the closest she gets to off-road at this point, is traversing the great potholes of Pittsburgh (I've only had to shift to 4-Lo three times, to crawl back out of some of them...). The previous owner drove it to the Outer Banks... a LOT... so it was an Interstate Crawler before that. 5 years old, 74,000 miles of asphalt, and the lower ball joints are shot already?!?!
2) My Commander ain't the only victim of employees in the state that thinks "right to work" is a THREAT to workers... https://theultimatejeep.com/images/imported/2012/12/rolleyes-1.gif My mechanic has an '07 Durango, which has also had to have the ball joints replaced. My wife's '08 Dodge Caravan needed them after 45k miles, and it was LESS than 2 years old, and a friend at church has an '08 Patriot with less than 30k miles, and IT needed replacement recently, too!
3) So what GIVES?!?!?! :mad::mad::mad:
