i've been running mine for the better part of a year, and i've had no problems with them. oh yeah, and the roads out here in the boonies are bumpy, but dammit if i'm not the only crazy **** tryin' to do 40 around those "10mph" 90 degree bends in the road!

yeah ive been running mine for 3 years. and id hope you dont have a problem with them because it seems like you havent had it on that long..

and yes in the bay roads are pretty screwed up too...but yeah i know its a good product and like everything else has some type of draw back but what i wanted to know was,

are you able to substitute the skunk2 upper ball joint with an OEM one.. thanks

You can't substitute the OEM ones for the Skunk2 ones. You can only substitute
the OEM ball joint boots. The reason is the Skunk2 joints are one piece and need
the holes on top to let you adjust camber.

The problem in not the ball joints. The problem (sometimes) is the boot.
