Re: [MBZ] front wheel play

Pretty much so long as it's a two ball joint design. McPherson strut suspensions generally won't shake, you need to pry up on the bottom of the tire and check for ball joint movement inside the boot. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives

[MBZ] front wheel play

2020-10-22 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
This is not really a vehicle-specific question I don't think. If I push/pull a front wheel at 9 and 3 o'clock and there is free play that is tie rod ends. If I do the same at 12 and 6 o'clock that is ball joint. Correct? Allan ___ http://www.okiebenz.com

Our first one was great. I’m surprised it only lasted 3 years. I am pretty sure it needs a control box or whatever and it would be fine. Normally I would have replaced it but the home warranty people paid for the new one. Sent from my iPhone > On Oct 22, 2020, at 6:33 PM, Dan Penoff via

Bosch dishwashers are the bomb. My brother in law turned us on to them, now he lives in a house with a Whirlpool builder’s grade dishwasher that you can hear running throughout the house. If he wasn’t a single guy who’s rarely home and probably never uses it, I’m betting he would have swapped
