    Kung ball joint ang sira papalitan mo na at sa sinasabi nilang i-weld yong joint thats a big no no. Dont ask, dont tell to those people, just walk away and never to go back, they are not for real. Now, regarding your cv joint(half shaft) kung punit na ang boot lalabas lahat ng grease meaning time to replace that boot or palit nalang nang bago CV joint. If budget is an option pa rebuilt mo na, make sure na alam at magaling ang gagawa.

    If your car is 5 yrs or older at marami ng lubak at rough road ang dinadaanan ng kotse mo it is advisable na palitan na lahat ang rubber bushing na related sa suspension(ex. control arm bushing) dahil podpud na ng mga iyan. I dont know how much it gonna cost but its not cheap either. Kung papalitan mo, its very important that ALWAYS in PAIR (magkabilaan).

    tnx v6dreamer

    regarding doon sa welding so i have to stay away from those guys then so what will do with the squeking then should a replace the suspension arm? para mawala ang squeaking sound? or is there any other alternative?

    sa CV joint naman boots lang ang papalitan right? how about bushing on the CV joints? or is it much better kung buong CV joint na ang papalitan?

    any suggestions on shops who does good repacking on CV joints?

    Do not in any circumstance have any of your suspension parts (ball joints, rack ends, tie rods) welded. Mga bobo ang mga mekaniko na nagsusuggest na iweld mo, have your suspension system checked by a reputable shop to be sure (cruve, speedy).

    tnx for the tip mazingerZ, kasi when they lifted my car and they shown me the ball joint im not sure kung ball joint ang name ng part na yun pero pinakita sa akin na mejo maluwag nga ang pagka fit sa suspension arm kaya di ko alam if the arm needs raplacement, kasi sabi nila posibleng lumaki daw ang butas or maliit lang daw ang size ng ball joint which nag doubt ako kasi standard naman ang size ng ball joint. i guess last option is to go to cruven

    Heads up lang bro, di naman aabot ng P1k ang isang pair ng ball joint. Might as well have it replaced. Sama mo na rin lang rack ends mga almost ganyang price din. Ball joints AFAIK would be deemed damaged na if gumagalaw na (hindi na stiff yung parang nipple).

    tnx chief, but the ball joints are newly replaced, yung rack end san ba yung naka locate kasi as far as i know kakapalit lang ng mga pang ilalim ko shocks ball joints and bushings sa front. pati ata rack end kakaplit ko lang but not sure kung yun yun, all was replaced a month ago all brand new replacements nga lang hindi orignal , after replacing dun na lumabas ang lagatok at squeaking sound

    yung ball joint yun yung nakakabit sa suspension arm na mukhang joystick type am i correct chief?

    Ball joint (as per my vehicle ha), is connected to the suspension arm. Tie rod ends are connected to the rack ends (hence some people call them "tie rods") which in turn are connected to the steering watchamacallit (i forgot the term).

Squeking sound and lagatok sa pang ilalim
