Ok I jacked up my car today, took the right front wheel and wiggled it since it make a big clunk clunk noise when driving super slow and turning.

Does a similiar clunk when I wiggle it left to right...and moves a little from up to down.
Chances are what ?? that my lower balljoint is done for ? I see there is a upper one too...any of the ones die out faster..witch one. Where do I start lol

Thanks guys

you will have to put it on JACKSTANDS not a jack and get under the car while you move the wheel. Im sure you will see what is loose.

ya but to get it on jackstands I had to jack it ;) right ? :p
Dont worry, im not one of those that rely on a peice of shit jack to support my heavy ass supra while im under it .. or shaking a wheel. Heard enough accidents witht that, and Ive had a bad experience with my dad and jackstands last year.

Ya the lower and uppper moved a little bit...but I guess they always move a little.
