Ball Joint FAQ
1) How do I know my ball joints are bad?
Clunks over bumps, uneven tire wear, wandering steering, or a shaky wheel often indicate ball joint play. We confirm with a hands-on inspection and measurement.
2) Can I replace just one ball joint?
Yes, but we typically recommend pairs (left/right) if wear is similar to keep handling balanced and reduce future labor costs.
3) Do I need an alignment after ball joint replacement?
Yes. Ball joint or control arm work changes geometry. A precise alignment protects tires and restores straight-line stability.
4) How long does ball joint repair take?
Most jobs are completed same day, depending on rust/corrosion, parts availability, and whether a press-in joint or full arm is needed.
5) Do you service Electric Vehicles?
Absolutely. We follow EV-specific lifting, torque, and alignment procedures for safe, accurate results on Teslas and other EVs.
