  Q: How to replace a worn out ball joint on Hyundai Excel?

  A:

  To replace the worn out ball joint, first lift up the vehicle and support it on jack stands. Look at the rubber boot for any cuts, tears or leaking of grease. If either of these conditions have been met then change the ball joint. Next, place a large pry bar under the ball joint and lift up then push down between Steering Knuckle and lower arm in order to determine if there's any movement or looseness in it. If you feel some movement, this means that your balljoint is worn out. Another way to test involves having another person shake the tire in an in-and-out motion while you check for looseness in the balljoint stud nut as it was mentioned above.If there's any play here, suspect a worn out stud or a widened hole where it passes through the steering knuckle boss; which requires replacing both parts. In this case, replace also the steering knuckle along with the old balljoint.
