does anyone know if theres a part number for just the ball joint instead of having to buy the entire conrol arm? i need the upper ones for both sides on my 90 accord

 

From what I know you cant buy the ball joint seperate cuz it comes as one piece not two...go to http://www.tasauto.com and they have them on there for about 60 bucks..not bad

 

unless you are buying those adjustable ball joints for camber adjustment, the stock upper control arm and upper ball joint come as one piece.

 

yep i changed mine recently.. changed it quick.. its better when it comes at one whole new peice..

 

It is possible to replace just the ball joint using one from another car, The last time I changed one the guys at UAP gave me two differnt joints and said one of them will fit just return the wrong one later. So I have No idea what car it was from, it was 26$ can. versues 135$ for the complete unit. If you have time remove one from the arm and bring it to a shop prehaps they will match it up for you.

uh, that wouldn't make me feel very safe. Just get the one thats meant for your car.

 

Ok so I stoprd by the shop and asked about the balljoint, it is not from another car as I belived but is actually for a honda. They are avaible from the altrom grouphttp://www.altrom.com/index-us.aspx you can search for a dealer in you area.

 

you right that website does list it individually...you saved me lots of money!
