I have a 66 New Yorker and am having a tough time with ball joints and tie rods constantly busting. What can I do to replace the stock ones that aren't working? After market ones, replace with bolts or what? If so, who makes these Chrysler parts? Looks the exact same as imps/ new ports of similar years.

Stop running heavy front tires.

And stop letting people get near them if that's the cause of the issues

Y framer ball joints suck in my opinion, if you look through the 65-73 y framer pictures many of the after pictures feature cars with missing front wheels. I would recommend replacing ball joints with straight up grade 8 Bolts, thick washers and weld the nuts so they dont come off.

Thanks, I do have some heavy tires on the front but never had issues with chevys laying tires down. Anything but those stock ball joints, I've replaced them multiple times but the same things keep happening so moving into bolts I'm hoping fixes the problems
