Thank You Justinmccan, I will check for loose bolts. Now that you mention it, It makes sense since I already replaced the upper ball joints for aftermarket and used different bolts than the ones that came with them(wuzy bolts). So there is a big chance I did not torque them right.

I have had the recalls performed on my 00' Dakota.
The major issues, Diamler/Chrysler doesn't seem to be concerned with ball joints at this time, or until a death occurs, from a wheel falling off or something of that nature. I have been looking at the bulletins and am in aww how many there are. I have talked to a few repair facilities, and they told me that the Gov. is trying to mandate a recall on ball joints to Chrysler. I have even (yesterday) called Chrysler's recall Number. I do beleive that if a number of customers sart calling this 800 #, they might finally do a recall. Please pass this # on: 800 - 853 - 1403
The more calls placed, the more we can get done.
