Hickory drivers book control arms & ball joints with Wrench Rescue because it's finished where the car sits. Coming up I-40 Exits 123–128 to Hickory is a normal run for us, and Catawba County is squarely inside our hour.
Why Hickory drivers book mobile control arms & ball joints
Hickory is the biggest city on our western edge, and I-40 makes it an easy run. We cover Viewmont, Mountain View, the airport area, and everything along US-70 and US-321. For control arms & ball joints, that means no tow, no ride-share to a shop, and no day off work — we do the job on site and you get your keys back the same visit.
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
