Lately when I hit a bump I have a bad vibration like more of a wheel hop on both side so I jacked up the front end of the jeep and the both wheels have play when you push the top part back I looked and can the the ball joints on the upper control arms are shot can the ball joints be replaced or do I need to replace the whole control are the jeep is lifted with the rocky road outfitters budget lift

Well if you have the stock arms you have to replace the whole arm
go to jeepinbyal , they have the best ones
PLUS now,.... the budget lifts are notorious for wearing out front suspension parts a lot faster than a good well designed suspension kit.
You may want to upgrade as soon as possible

You'll appreciate the Al's upper a-arms once you get them. So much better than the stock ones. The ball joints that come with them are beefier and have the zerk fitting for greasing. :pepper:
