#6124, "ball joints"


          

I have a 1995 Talon Esi and I have a qestion about ball joints.

I just pulled the motor this weekend and when I went to pop the ball joints, I noticed that both ball joints on either side moved up and down about an inch and a half. This kind of scared me because of the recall on the ball joints.

Are they supposed to do this?


Thanks
