Hey guys so I've been reading the threads about what could be wrong with my rear driver tire and I also took it to a tie place briefly and the consensus is it may be the ball joint? What's happening is everyone I turn it go over a bump at an angle my rear tire seems to kind of slide side to side, at least it sounds like it. I recently took the tires off to do some work so I thought that I just didn't screw on the lug nuts right enough so admittedly they had come loose a little bit so I tightened them and the problem still tends to be there a little bit...any one have any ideas what it could be?? Help!
rear tire problems, help!

Yeah he shook it (on the ground) and was looking at it and was like oh that sound like it could be a ball joint. I was skeptical of him at first but I'm glad to hear they don't have ball joints now I know he had no clue what he was talking about.
I didn't even think about that, I'll have to do that tomorrow and see if that's it, I hope it's something as simple as just the lug nuts being looser than I thought

I think you understand this, but we do have ball joints on the front end, upper and lower. Just to clarify. Good luck man, I don't have anything intelligent to say about your tire problem.

Thats alright, I appreciate the hints, im just trying to rule things out. How do you know when the front ball joints to out, or are acting up?
