E Series Ball Joints
My 05 E350 work van has a steering issue at highway speeds. It requires frequent correction
to stay straight. Ford dealer corrected tiny alignment issue (not the problem) and installed
GREASE ZERKS in the upper and lower ball joints where the factory had only put a screw
plug.
Do any members have experience putting Zerks in these locations and thus avoid component
breakdown later on?
By the way, the KOREAN tires that come with these vans from Ford, a "HANCOOK" brand,
may be my culprit in the lousy steering. More to come...
