Ok, had the ball joints replaced @ 14K and guess what! 29K my steering pump goes out and guess what, needs ball joints again. Has anyone heard if jeep is gonna do anything about this?

If the ball joints get real bad they will set off your ESP/BAS sensor. If the wheels are tilted in a bit, thats a good sign. If you can shake the wheel back and forth with your hands, also a good sign.

Just pull the axle out and shake the spindle.
