Wondering a bit
I was thinking tire wear in. I've put on over 350 miles trying to break them in. How long do you guys think it takes to properly break in tires?
I will check tire pressure.
BTW, the lower ball joint boots are cracked/torn.

I'm guessing that if you go thru the trouble to replace the boot, might as well replace the joint as well.
Yep. Ball joints aren't horribly expensive, it's the getting to them that sucks. Well, that and getting them out. But yes, if you're tearing it down then just replace the joint too.
Agreed. Did my tie rod end yesterday and took me 2 hours. It was rotted in and took half a can of PB Blaster and working it till it finally came out. Had I known what a pain it would be, I would've just bought the entire track rod and be done with it. The crappy part is, when the right side fails, I'll have to buy the track bar anyway.

Or are you referring to something else?
My Disco has all factory original suspension and steering components (except the P/S pump) I'm referring to the left tie rod that threads into the track bar. Since it was never changed, it was rotted in place. What I should have done was buy the entire track bar from AB ($155 I think) Would've made life easier.
