I'm looking at replacing some bits on my front end and since I'll be working in the area, I'm thinking about replacing the ball joints (are they ball joints or really king pins?). In any case, I don't want to go to the effort if there is nothing wrong with the existing ball joints, but I'm not sure how to evaluate their condition. My truck has about 180k Km's and hasn't seen a lot of off road. Can anyone offer some advice on how I determine if the existing ball joints need to be replaced? Thanks for any advice.
