Woodleaf drivers book control arms & ball joints with Wrench Rescue because it's finished where the car sits. Coming up US-70 to Woodleaf is a normal run for us, and Rowan County is squarely inside our hour.

Why Woodleaf drivers book mobile control arms & ball joints

Woodleaf is an easy shot east on US-70. We cover the whole stretch between Statesville and Salisbury. For control arms & ball joints, that means no tow, no ride-share to a shop, and no day off work — we do the job on site and you get your keys back the same visit.

What's included

Ball joints and control arm bushings are what connect your wheels to the car. When they wear you get clunks, wander, and uneven tire wear — and a ball joint that separates can drop the wheel. We check for play with the wheel loaded and unloaded, replace the arm or joint, and torque everything with the suspension at ride height.

  1. Inspect for play in ball joints and bushings
  2. Replace the control arm assembly or press in new joints
  3. Check tie rods and sway bar links at the same time
  4. Torque bushings at ride height
  5. Recommend alignment

Signs it's time

  • Clunking or popping over bumps or when turning
  • Steering feels loose or wanders
  • Uneven inner-edge tire wear
  • Squeaking from the front end
  • Visible play when the wheel is rocked
