That's what mine will get as soon as they even hint they are loose.

I don't like shopping for tires too often.

I installed my K3199's at about 18,000miles after 2 LBJ recalls,the 1st OEM set was fine when replaced but the 2nd set was shot after 7000miles(3/8" play).I now have 67,000miles on my KJ and the K3199's are tight as the day I installed them(49,000miles),I shoot 3 pumps of Mobil1 grease in them every oil change.

Hey guys, is anyone seeing a second round of ball joint failures? A CRD friend of mine from the Salem, OR area has an '06 he bought used, low miles and the recall had already been done on it. He is hearing clunking in the front on start, stop, turn. The CRD is heavier than the V6 in the front so it would stand to reason that we would see a second round of failures before the gassers.

Yup, almost identical results here. I check them every oil change and they are staying put.
