F-150 XLT 5.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 36,000 miles

What the hell Ford, 36,000 miles and my balljoints are toast and dry rotted. First issue, no grease zerts! Who the hell makes a ball joint with no grease zerts. Next, Why did you make this a a-arm issue...You can't just replace the balljoint you have to replace the whole damn a-arm. Great now I have to do an alignment too. Thanks Ford. The only other way to fix this stupid ass iss is to find an aftermarket upper a-arm with replaceable ball joints....Good luck im still looking. Part replacement is about $130.00 each side, labor, plus cost of a new alignment. Just another way for Ford to make a buck I guess.
