Default Will Stock upper ball joints fit on a skunk 2 camber kit?

My front upper ball joints are shot and I need to replace them. I have a skunk 2 camber kit and was wondering if I have to order special ball joints or if oem will work. Thanks

I dont think any joint will work but again i havent used the skunk2 arms. Hardrace sells a camber kit that seems to get really solid reviews compared to the other brands.

When were the Skunk2 Upper ball joints discontinued? I still see them on JHPUSA and other sites of that sort selling the replacements... I could be wrong since the last time I checked it was 2 weeks ago...

Skunk2 Discontinued the crappy replacement Ball Joint that you find in the "classic" or "tuner" series camber kits. They still offer those kits to compete with the other basic brands but if/ when the joint goes out... you can upgrade to their top of the line Pro Series Ball Joint (916-05-5670) that comes Std. in their "Pro Series" and "Pro Series Plus" Camber Kits.
