yea i’m about to swap some coilover springs in her for the race springs to raise her up a lil for winter. i havent been able to get underneath yet i’m hoping it’s nothing too serious money’s been tight this year. it’s getting more noticeable though so it doesn’t sound good. ---

Prolly the ball joints since they aren’t greasable. I’ve looked around at moog and some other brands and can’t find any that have grease fittings… ---

> [@num482](#): > > buddy had a problem like that, ended up being lower ball joint. Yep, my vote too. My Expedition was making an unbelievable racket when the lower ball joint went. Every little bump, even just touching the brakes. Only way to know for sure is to jack it up and start looking for play. ---

> [@Nology](#): > > Prolly the ball joints since they aren’t greasable. I’ve looked around at moog and some other brands and can’t find any that have grease fittings… you can go buy a grease needle to go on your grease gun…it works well on sealed fittings… i had horrible balljoints, one even let loose, on my integra and didnt hear any noises. Same symptoms as descriped above happened on my girlfriends car and it ended up being the strut. ---
