bne329 Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 ok well recently i dropped my truck from the front and was doing good till like two weeks later i started to here a pop everytime i turned and it was really bothering me so i lifted up the truck and my tire was moving i could move it up and down and left to right. so i took it to a mechanic and i asked him what it could be he said it was the wheel hub and pitman arm and idler arm. so i go buy them. he does the job and says that that wasnt the problem it was the upper ball joint. so then i returned the parts and didnt trust his word so i took it to the alignment shop and told them what could be wrong they said it was the wheel bearing not the pitman/idler arm. they said they willl fix it but its goin to be $396. so my question is is it hard to replace it myself?
