I need to replace my upper ball joints since those went bad, now I've searched but I cant find if hondaautomotiveparts sells them seperatly, can I purchase some new upper ball joints or what?

If so what category is it under?

Ok it looks like they only sell the upper arm

So that leads me into a camber kit, now I've heard too many bad things about the skunk2 kit and I've had experience with the adjustable ball joints but they would hit the upper part of my car making a horrible sound and eventually putting a nice dent in it.

Any suggestions on what to get?

I have read in a few places that the upper balljoints are an integrated part of the upper control arm. To replace the balljoint you must replace the UCA...

#6 & #8 are the correct numbers, but if your lowered you could purchase the skunk 2 upper arms camber kit. It comes with a moveable ball joint, and you don't have to pay for bushings and upper mounts that you already have (it only comes with UCA & balljoint).

Ebay search "92 skunk camber"...

I have heard of problems with the old design but not too many post about the new designed ones they just release, a vendor on here sells them for $173 shipped, and is alot cheaper than ordering the stock parts but I dont want to have the problem of it hitting the car or having the adjustment slip.

They new ones are a bit nicer looking. They have a sandwich style balljoint mount with an extra steel plate on top now. I 'm not sure about slippage, but the good news is if you ever need to replace your ball joint again, you can just buy the ball joint...

I would e-mail skunk2 and ask them how their new design keeps the balljoint from moving around (lock nuts, lock washers, loc-tite).

I think I'm more worried about hitting the top of the car since on my other car I had and adj ball joint and it eventually just ate through the shock tower and make some ugly bumps on each side. I just wonder if these will clear.

Well I just ordered the stock arms, didnt want to deal with the skunk2 kit (modding it to make it work like it should), if I have a camber problem I will just get a pivot mount type of kit.
