What owners wrote

I have a 2000 ford f-250 superduty. It's common knowledge among ford owners that the balljoints in the superduty line are prong to premature faiure. I've heard of failures on vehicles with mileage as low as 24,000. Check some of the ford truck forums on the internet, theres alot of data to back my claims. Mine failed before 50,000. Repairs/replacement will cost $960.00. Thats expensive, I had to keep driving my truck till I could afford to fix.

Reported at 50,000 miles, March 2008 Crash

I have a 2000 ford f250 3/4 ton 5.4 gas 2 wheel drive long bed extended cab pickup. The truck shakes and cups tires badly at highway speed if weight is put onto the right front wheel. I have heard of several incidents of the death wobble on the f250 but most were 4x4 trucks. I think that this is dangerous. My truck only has 60k miles on it.
