| You didn't describe the noise but I'd shoot some Motocycle Chain Lube into the open ball joint and try it again ~ I bet the joint has gone dry and is groaning / squeaking as it unloads and loads the suspension . If not that , try spraying Aerosol Silicone lube into the various rubber bushings , if that quiets it for a moment , consider a front end rebuild . Ripped ball joint dust seals can be really dangerous . -Nate Mike wrote : Well since you didn't kick me out for having a 77 280SE gasser, I was wondering if I could get your thoughts on this. I have front end noise when accelerating, decelerating or driving at app. 10-15 mph. I change the tei rods my self, the alignment is adjusted but car pull to the right. Ball joint boot is ripped. It just started about an hour ago and has me a little concerned. Thanks so much! Mike |
