Well this morning I went in for the Auto Trans service, it's just easier, plus I had on hell of a coupon. Just for the grins, I said to the Service guy, could you check my Lower Ball Joints for saftey reasons. Well low and behold, they told me they're going to replace them after ordering the parts, under warranty.
I did the "test" that has been talked about before and saw nothing.
Now according to the Service dept, the wear was at the early stages, but I only have 15k on the clock. Kind of annoying but at least it's under warranty, and the clock typically resets on warranty repairs.
So the next time you guys take it to the dealership, have them look at them. You never know.

Got an alignment a couple of days ago after i put the lift on and they said they were fine. I watched the guy check them. I figured mine would go early with all the flex i put them under, put he said they were fine.

I heard from another dealership a while back, that on warranty repairs, the dealership does not get paid for labor only part reimbursment.
This was a 5 star Chrylser, Jeep, Dodge dealership in Foothill Ranch, California.
I have been going over some sizeable rocks recently, maybe that has something to do with it?
