Replying to: 252hpls8 (Aug 24, 2009 1:49 pm) Hi I;m actually going through that same thing where they are saying I need the whole control arm with the knuckle to fix my lower ball joint. What exactly did you buy for $88 from that website. I looked but I couldn't find exactly what i needed. I need a passenger side lower ball joint and a driver side upper ball joint.
#90 of 96 Rough Ride by lskccc Oct 09, 2009 (1:28 pm)
I've had my Lincoln LS for almost 2 years now and I love it. I know its time for some suspension work because its riding pretty rough now. I am trying to figure oout the cheapest route to go as far as my suspension. I was trying to figure out if an aftermarket full suspesnion kit with all new bushings or OEM would be cheaper.

#92 of 96 Lower ball joints by dsapern Oct 23, 2009 (10:29 am)
I know there was a recall on the front lower ball joints for improper torque, does anyone know the proper torque? Also I purchased lower ball joints separately from the knuckle, and one of my local machine shops can't press the old one out or the new one in. Any ideas. I'm going to another machine shop later to see if maybe they can. Has anyone had any luck pressing out the old ball joints and pressing in new ones?

#93 of 96 Re: BEWARE OF SAFETY RECALL #00S39-Certain 2000-2001 Model Year Lincoln LS [mommi] by expolice Oct 29, 2009 (10:36 am)
Replying to: mommi (Jun 16, 2009 12:14 pm) Mommi, Just because the ball joint failed doesn't mean it was because the ball joint nut was loose! Ball joints fail everyday. A ball joint failure at 50-60,000 miles or more is not uncommon. If the telltale signs are ignored long enough, the failure can be catastrophic, as was your experience. If you were to provide the VIN, I could tell you when/where/mileage the recall was completed, provided your vehicle was included in the original recall.   That's all I know for now...

Replying to: dsapern (Oct 23, 2009 10:29 am) Per the recall bulletin, the ball joint nut should be torqued to 150 Nm (111 lb-ft).   That's all I know for now...
#95 of 96 thinking of buying an LS by ruckus02140 Nov 09, 2009 (4:18 pm)
Is a LS a good car to buy? I was thinking of buying a used 2000-01.Does it have air suspension or springs and struts? thanks Replies to this message: akirby (Nov 10, 2009 5:29 am)

Replying to: ruckus02140 (Nov 09, 2009 4:18 pm) Springs and shocks. The 03-06 models are better. Expect to replace the COPs and possibly do a tranny repair (usually just replacing the valve body). They're great cars to drive and a great value.
