I had my car in the shop and I need a second opinion .

1. they showed me the pit man arm was lose (ball joint) when the car was in the air ? but when the car is on the ground it is not lose .

2. ball joints how do you till if they are going bad ? I had them go bad on me once and you could here grinding noise when turning? are there any other symptoms ? or tests?

What the tech showed me when the car was in the air the wheels were hard to turn by hand? Is this a good test ?
