when you jacked it up did it hang straight that must of been a hard hit

 

if you bent the housing you weekend it its toast just get another

 

The housing is strait. strait edge and angle finder verified.

The wheel did not go strait when jacked up...

 

ypu bent the ears then cause i would think th weight of the tires would have sagged them back down

 

not necessarily. It still can be ball joints and wheel bearings. They dont have to straiten back out when they are lifted off the ground. That is the ****ty part about it

 

mine never move from the straight pos when it off the ground looking at the vid you posted the ball joint is def fuuuged the arms just dont look right

 

So I took a ton of measurements today.

First i leveled the axle:





Driver side measurements-


Unit Bearing Surface: 2*



Axle nut: 2*



Tie Rod Mount: 2*



Top Ball Joint: 12*

]

Bottom of the ear: 11*



Ball joint/Ball joint: 10*

 

Passenger Side is as follows:

Unit Bearing Surface: 3.5*



Axle Nut: 3*



Tie Rod Mount: 2*



Top Ball Joint: 15*



Bottom of the ear: 10*



Ball joint/Ball joint: 12*

 

These numbers are all conflicting tho...

 

hey man, I did a quick driveway check on mine without leveling my axle and my ball joint to ball joint came out to about 9 degrees. Might want to get a second opinion though this was only a driveway check without leveling the axle.

 

Thanks man! If you could get the reading of the axle as it sits I can just do the math on what it would come out to while being level that would be great!

 

10-11 degrees on drivers 9 degrees on pass. axle is sitting at 2 degree towards the passenger. Pretty damn close to yours. It may just by your ball joints. Opinions are like ********, but for my dime I would start with the ball joints.

 

very true statement. Thank you for taking the time to go measure yours. I am going to post a thread asking others to do the same. I really hope it is ball joints. I just wanna make sure. That way I can either start looking for a new housing or new balljoints offset or regular.

 

no problem. good luck.

 

Hi, i got the same problem.

I've changed ball joints, hubs, tie rods and looks the same...

Tires run out very quick...

can i change just the C's? or do i have to change the hole axle?

this is driving me crazy... here in Venezuela tires are ver expensive and i have spent 6 already just looking for the problem...

thanks...

PD
i have 16" wheels and 315 75 R16 tires ... thats someting like 35"
