    dang, glad the car didn't skip flip while it was on the road. rear balljoints aren't bad to fix. Where you working on a body kit? Or has it already been made?

    Sorry to see that dude. I had the left front balljoint go out on my old Se-i at 50mph with 3 of my friends in the car with me. That was really scary.

    i was wondering about the ball joints. i think the way to check them is to jack the car up a bit and pull or push the wheel to see if there's any play or clunking. i dunno, anyway, do you have to get an alignment after putting new ball joints on? i was worried about that.
