Well I finally replaced the upper control arm / ball joint at 158,000 miles
They cost about $90 and $94 each at Tasca Parts.
The mechanic finished both sides in about an hour and then alligned
the Maruader to Carfixer specs. I also replaced the left front tire.
I'm running Hancook Ventus V12 Evo's in 225/40/ZR18 size up front. They have great grip and last longer than the BFG's.
results: The car is handling much better. Cornering has firmed up as
have braking. The replacement parts look beefier than the originals.
I give the repair a A+.
