I replaced both wheel bearing/hub assy. on our 95 today, and noticed that both the left and right lower ball joints had some vertical play. Left side more than the right.
Could not get it by hand. Had to put a screwdriver between the knuckle and lower arm to really see it.
Front end has some light popping noise/sensation on rough/gravel roads, bad potholes. On road performance is great, still handles very tight, despite being about to roll 200k miles.
I have a full set of front susp. bushings/joints that need to go in any way, but was kind of curious if this is OK. I guess I will find out soon enough.
