i just bought a new ball joint for my 88 subaru dl wagon. i broke the bolt trying to get the old one out and had to use a pipe wrench to get the old joint out and a blue wrench. i thought the ball joints would be expensive but it was only 8 bucks at autozone and it came with a new bolt. now just new axle bearings and axles and get it running which has to be something simple i remember someone saying a ground wire up by the ecu when i get a chance i will look and if that is all it is boy will i feel dumb.

it is the ground wire i just need to find it now.
