Default massive help needed!

So I've been having issues with my s13. Its riding really bumpy and when I turn I hear a loud bang that you can feel in the paaenger seat. I've been told its my tie bars but I'm not sure anyone have any ideas?

Ball joints are probably shot.

It's hard to tell visually. From what you said about the problem, they're gone. Remove and replace them, they're 40-50 bucks a pop.

i just bought lower control arms with the ball joints already pressed in them today from napa, they were about 65 each
just the lower ball joints are like 55 each, then you have to pay to get them pressed in
so i'll leave you to conclude the better deal

Sounds better than what I thought it'd end up. I can figure out the work usually

there's a lot of parts that can fail and make your wheel shake, so if you replace those and find that thats not the problem, dont be surprised lol

just a friendly heads up
