Well,
While plumbing brake lines, and checking wheels cylinders here's what I found.
It looks like the SPO bought the kit to replace the seals, but chickened out. He did the classic screw driver and hammer trick on the nuts because he did'nt have a big enough socket (geez, how hard is it to go harbor freight or sears). I don't know how much further he went, but he must have monkeyed with the ball joint on the passenger side. I can rock the ball joint up and down about 1/8" or so.
I hav'nt been into one in over ten years so I thought I'd stop and get some opinions first. My guess is, he released the pre-load when taking things apart and just bolted everything back together without resetting it. I may be way off base here though, so let the opinions fly.
The drivers side, which appears to have been untouched by said SPO is fine.
