Ball joint Sign In
On Saturday, i had to replace upper ball joint so I did but because it is a Honda
i have to change the ball joint and control arm because they are all in one.
Today when i was driving the side i got the control arm fixed I heard a knocking sound.
Could this be it? N I should be able to go back and get it fixed for free?

If the control arm is defective a reputable shop should warranty it. But thats only if thats the issue. Let them have a look and see what they say.

You could have left something loose. You need to get to the bottom of that problem ASAP.

It's just a rubber boot. It looks like you haven't greased it.

Re: Ball joint Sign In
I tryied it didn't work. It happens sometimes. When u change ur control arm do you need to change both at the same time? Cuz I only change the left side cuz bad ball joint.
