Landis drivers book control arms & ball joints with Wrench Rescue because it's finished where the car sits. Coming up US-29 to Landis is a normal run for us, and Rowan County is squarely inside our hour.
Why Landis drivers book mobile control arms & ball joints
Landis is the small town between China Grove and Kannapolis. We cover it on the same run. 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
