Doodle is right, if you don't measure the ball joints and the hole they're going in, sometimes the ball joint is too big, and binds after it's pressed in. Hot VW's magazine did an article about how the ball joints that are available today generally need to be machined down to prevent binding

Thanks for the help guys. I'll have to take care of that next time I'm at the shop. I'll let ya know how it goes.
