Re: Ball joints, tire wear, steering wheel vibration!
Thank ya. I do intend to get this fixed, it's just that I'm (at least temporarily) moving to Wisconsin in a few weeks and was hoping to get this taken care of before adding 1500 miles to the van, but after the $1500 quote I'm thinking I'll wait a bit and make sure it holds up otherwise.
The main question I have is how reasonable is the 3 hrs/side quote to swap the control arms?
I think I like the machining solution... Thanks for the link!

Re: Ball joints, tire wear, steering wheel vibration!
Seems reasonable. Considering the age and potential other issues I'd probably bid it at that too. Of course when I do the final billing I charge actual time. Some shops do a job in half time then charge quoted time (I always viewed that as being dishonest). If things go well they might be able to do both sides in 3, but who knows. Ask them if that's a flat fee or if they will charge actual time. They were within MSRP on the upper arms, so at least they weren't trying to rape you there. Tim
