Update. Mechanic says ball joints are fine. I get a pull to left while braking. He says I need trailer arm bushings?? Is that control arm bushings? I came find any trailer arm bushings. He did moog strut rod problem solvers last spring and those are fine. He said my problem has to be trailer arm...
I replaced the strut rod bushings last year with the Moog. So far so good. I’m replacing my ball joints with OEM Motorcraft. Got 2 Motorcraft lower ball joints for $70 on EBay. Seems most Motorcraft chassis parts are getting really hard to find for our Marks
He does great work. I won’t tackle this one. Leave it to the professional. Just thought the $500 was a bit steep. Other shops were priced about the same. Without the alignment he’s gonna do for free.
98 LSC 70k original ball joints so replacing them now. I have OE Motorcaft ball joints for replacement. Labor quote from my mechanic was $500 to replace for both sides. Said he’ll align it for free. Is this a fair price to do this? I know it’s not the easiest thing in the world. But $500??

I didn’t check them myself, shop around the corner did. I’ll have to stop back in and get the actual voltage readings. I know these Continental’s act real funny when voltage dips just a tad. My gut tells me it’s a bad ground somewhere. I’m gonna dig into it more this week. Thanks for the...
Trans fluid full, fuses good. Battery terminals were corroded so I replaced both. Seemed to work for about 2 weeks then problem came back. So I’m thinking now replace the entire cable from battery to firewall.
i own a 98 Continental and I’m have a voltage issue. Newer battery newer alternator both been tested good. I keep getting a issue with dimming lights radio will turn off by itself and turn back on. And from time to time if I drive it long enough the power steering will go out. Can’t seem to find...
