If you're in North Charlotte and your car needs control arms & ball joints, you don't have to get it to a shop. We're a mobile mechanic based in Statesville, on the outer ring of our service area, about 50 minutes away, and we do this job in driveways and parking lots around University City every week.
Why North Charlotte drivers book mobile control arms & ball joints
We cover the north side of Charlotte inside I-485, including University City, Northlake, and Highland Creek. Uptown and south Charlotte are outside our normal radius. That's exactly the situation mobile steering & suspension work solves: the mechanic comes to the vehicle, so a car that shouldn't be driven doesn't have to be.
What's included
Ball joints and control arm bushings are what connect your wheels to the car. When they wear you get clunks, wander, and uneven tire wear — and a ball joint that separates can drop the wheel. We check for play with the wheel loaded and unloaded, replace the arm or joint, and torque everything with the suspension at ride height.
- Inspect for play in ball joints and bushings
- Replace the control arm assembly or press in new joints
- Check tie rods and sway bar links at the same time
- Torque bushings at ride height
- Recommend alignment
Signs it's time
- Clunking or popping over bumps or when turning
- Steering feels loose or wanders
- Uneven inner-edge tire wear
- Squeaking from the front end
- Visible play when the wheel is rocked
