Ka-Chow!

This happened literally 3 minutes after I finished a 100 mile trip on the highway. And in the parking lot of a Jeep/Truck shop!

I can’t imagine how much worse this could have been!

I vote just go to Autozone , buy their best Moog ball joint for the lowers, ( check the uppers , they are a bigger assembly , but I bet all four are shot ) borrow the ball joint press , all you will need is a hood floor Jack , 2 good stands , and basic tools , except you will need a couple large sockets and a breaker bar and cheater bar ,
