The new thrust rod ball joint busted.
I went feeling around to make sure nothing came loose and my hand came back covered in grease. When I laid down I saw the grease had sprayed out of the back of the ball joint. It took me 90 minutes to get the ball joint into the socket on that side because of the tight clearance with the axle. I'm guessing it was the mechanic at the shop to "helped" me by using a punch and hammer to get the ball joint in. Just ordered a new one with 2 day shipping so hopefully won't be stuck long.
