You guys just can't stop raggin on the girl.

Katie, fix the ball joints, I bet it would cost under 75 bucks and an hour of your time to replace them. The tires do look small, but who cares?

I can't afford to fix the front end right now, it is just sitting in the garage. After today when I took a turn and the front end started cracking/popping/etc. I can't stand this truck. And when I started it up few days ago, it sounded like the belt snapped, no one could figure out what made the noise.

I get to drive the jeep around now, much better. It just needs a V8, 4x4 and some 35s!

All vehicles have problems, but routine maintenance in my opinion is not a problem, it’s a necessity.

No. I shouldnt have to replace the balljoints since they are brand new.

Bought the truck with stripped upper and lower control arms + balljoints, spent 1200dollars to have them replaced. 6months ago, 9k miles ago.

K I don't really want to get rid of mine since I won't have them if I want to de-lift but I will. Have you checked Lowe's for the bolts, the one near me sells grade 8 stuff.
