ok guys, i replaced my right side bearings because there was a fair amount of play in the wheel and i slaped it together and the play is still there. i am wondering if it is ball joints then and how safe is it to ride with a bad jointt because i dont got money for long travel right now. but would you guys have any other ideas?

it could be your ball joints but also check the shock eye bushes and the bushes where your a arms bolt to the frame, they went on mine before the ball joints.
