ball joints, where to buy and what brand?

[ZackieDarko]

i searched "ball joints" and a bunch of shit that has nothing to do with ball joints showed up


i want to replace ALL my ball joints

correct me if im wrong here but there are 2 on each side up front and 1 on each side out back

which brand is best besides OEM from Honda and where should i buy them


also where should i get my REAR camber kits from?

I would get the moog ones,you can get them from summit racing, I would check with summit and get every moog part you can get. on the front it would be the lower ball joint,it acts and looks like a king pin in this case,and is super critical,the upper ball joints on the front are permanently welded to the upper control arms. if you order a control arm,you normally need to order a kit for each arm that includes the bushing that presses in the end of each arm,and another kit that has the bolt,the dust seals,etc. you didn't use to be able to get the kit with the seals and end caps,but some some reason advance carries this kit. their control arms suck,but the bushing kits,and the seal and bolt kit are good.

Check rockauto.com for moog stuff they have very good prices.

I go to napa personally... then have your local mechanic with a press, press them in (if youre doing front lowers)

i got front lower moog ball joints...they were 30 bucks a side from rockauto. i had to push the lower ones out with a big hammer and then the new ones just slid in. makes me feel safe that im not going to bust that joint since they have lifetime warranty....they are a bit pricey but well worth for suspension.

OEM Honda

get oem honda or moog ones both are very good. Usually you can pound them in and out using a bfh

When you put in the control arms, note that the bushings have to be greased with silicone grease. Be SURE you do this, otherwise when they start to squeek they'll drive you nuts, and then it will be too late, as the only way to get grease into the bushings is to remove them.

When you say grease them, do you put the grease in the hole in the arm first and then push the joint in?

Put grease inside then slide the long bolt inside.
