I replaced the upper control arm on my 02 Explorer XLS and the ball joint popped out after 2 weeks also replaced the lower ball joint and sway bar end links when I did the upper on both sides. The tie rod ends or good. The new ball joint does not have the grease zerts. Can I put a 1/4 inch thick steel strap across the top of the ball joint and bolt it to the control arm to keep it in place with grade 8 bolts???????????????
