Description of the problem | I own a 1998 dodge durango with approx. 91,000 miles. Last year i had to replace the front lower ball joint on the driver's side. I began to notice that the vehicle would shake uncontrollably when it reached highway speeds (55 mph). This month i purchased and installed 4 new tires, but the service station could not do an alignment on my vehicle because the front upper ball joint on the driver's side had gone bad.*ak |
