    Highly recommend!

    Well, today I finished putting on new tie rod ends, new ball joints, and new wheel bearings. All I can say is wow! Car drives 100% better. Bumps dont rattle the front, it feels tight & sound now, when the car goes over a bump. Drives straight even after the alignment.
    Well worth the money and now have the peace of mind that a wheel is not going to fly off.

    Havent hit the freeway but cant wait to find out if the come and go wobble is gone for good.

    Cost for the repair on 8G other then my time was under $300. Plus add about another $200 in rental price for ball joint remover and wheel hub puller.

    Just a pointer for those who are reading this.
    If replacing your wheel hub. Place the new hub in the freezer 24 hours prior to installing into spindal housing. And add heat to the spindal housing to make it expand. Makes it 10 time easier to get the new hub in.
