Description of the problem	With a low mileage of 37,325, both original front ball joints needed to be replaced. Majority of the accumulated mileage is highway driving and there is only one driver. After gradually noticing a rocky ride, i made a mechanic's appointment for a diagnosis of the problem. The experienced mechanics diagnosed the ball joint defect. The mechanic called the jeep dealership to price jeep parts and was told two complete arms would have to be purchased to complete the ball joint repair. The condition of the broken ball joints showed excessive play. This is my second jeep vehicle; the first vehicle was a jeep cherokee 4x4 that did not have this problem with low mileage.
