$$$ for ball joints
I have the drivers side ball joints that need replacing and the pass. side has some slack in them. I really don't want to fool with doing them myself I just don't have time right now. My mechanic quoted $184 labor to replace both sides top and bottom and replace axle u joints(my decision-already there, might as well). Does this sound like a good price?

Sounds like a great deal to me. My roommate got charged $300 for labor for the ball joints and a hub.

I was quoted $700 for joints and labor on one side only. Still looking to have it done.
