It was a ball joint. Expedition actually.
First time ever seeing one this bad. It fell of as soon as I Jack it up. Ate the spindle and control arm up. 276, xxx miles. Figure it was going to be a lil harder guess.
Damn son that is one effed up BJ.. Only real definitive quality of it being a BJ is the hole for the cotter pin in the threading. Otherwise if that weren't there I'm not sure what'd I'd guess it to be lol
Ford trucks kill ball joints like crazy. My Explorer needs both upper and lower done on the front end. It has the typical Ford bounce squeak when it goes over anything rough.
