Today the plan was to go get a new top for the wife's 98 Gt, but it didn't happen. I made it about a mile up the road and BAM! right front lower ball joint pops out and shoots the control arm into the wheel. Man at first I thought the wheel fell off. Luckily it was able to limp off the street into parking lot . 3 hours two tow trucks later . Anyone ever had this happen? Man I would of hate this to of happened when the wife was driving down Hwy 80 doing 70 going to work at 5:30 in the morning.
