Lower Ball Joints

I just came from inspection on my truck and found out that I failed because of the lower ball joints. Too much play in both sides.

I am more than a litle disappointed. 45,000 miles on the truck and its not a work vehicle. Occasional trailer and a load of wood. Super pathetic.

$500.00 to get it fixed.
