[DeTomaso] Lower ball joints

[Mike Drew]

Joe,

I routinely help people replace all their ball joints and A arm bushings because people buy complete kits. Honestly, I have only ever seen the lower front balljoints go bad. Every upper front and rear balljoints I have changed out has still been perfectly good, apart from the rubber boot. 

If I was on a budget I would only buy lower fronts, plus new boots for the uppers.
