Re: 95 eagle talon lower ball joint

Take the car to a dealership and get the lower ball joints checked out. There was a recall on them and the dealership required my law to inspect, replace, and reseal for the life of the car.

On a side note before I knew about the recall, I got my lowers replaced and it was the whole arm. I got reimbursed by Chrysler when I learned about the recall then.

On the lower ball joint you do have to replace the whole arm
