Rough price range to replace ball joints


Recommended Posts

When I had my tires rotated, they said the ball joints may need replacement. You could slightly rotate the tires left/right. I don't feel anything obvious when driving. Just wondering what a typical price range from a local shop or dealer to have them replaced?

This is on a 2011 Fusion V6 SEL.

Hi andy. I checked my old work invoices, since I've had front suspension work done in the past on my 2007 MKZ. But after looking, I never replaced just the ball joints alone, so I can not narrow down the costs to only ball joints.

 

Here is what I would recommend: While it never hurts to ask online, pricing can vary greatly by region, city, shop etc. So I would recommend you call your local Ford Dealers and several local shops you can trust for pricing.

 

Just ask them for a pricing estimate for the work you want. And compare apples to apples at each Dealer/shop. That will give you the most accurate pricing for your situation.

 

Let us know how you make out and good luck.

Price wouldnt vary much if you are having someone else do the work unless they use aftermarket parts.

A proficient mechanic should charge about 1.5 hours per side
