So on install of my hawk hp+'s I noticed that my front end lower ball joint was ripped and needed to be replaced. I went to Autozone but they told me that they don't even have the part # for it and I needed to go to the dealer. the dealer said it would be over $200.00 since they sell it with the lower control arm. now I have searched crsx and they have a pair they sell from buddy club for $163.00. has anyone else run into this issue? if so could you point me out where to buy an oem replacement. I would like the buddy club ones but i don't think its necessary. thanx for your time.

 

 

LOL

 

wtf go to napa dude if there one around your area. i got 2 outer tie rods and 2 lower ball joints for 160 dollars. prob like 200 for you if you gott all that i mention cuz i get a discount for working at honda.

Um... yeah... Go to NAPA.

For some reason they didn't have the ball joint listed for the 2004 RSXs, but they do for the 2002. If they are the same, the the cheapest one was $35.

 

thanx all of you this was very helpfull and as a reward heres a cute asian chick

 

ok now im worried as well i went to my local napa and they did not have one for the 2004 one but did for 2002 im unaware of any differences in suspension.
-does anyone know if their is a difference or if i am fine with getting the 2002?

 

thats weird, I bought them from Autozone. Its that crappy Duralast brand. I think its on their website too. It was like $25 each I think

 

the lower balljoint is not sold by its self from honda/acura.....it is a "cold fit" part....the balljoint is dipped in liquid Nitragen and slipped into the cast knuckel....If you get a replacement balljoint( there are a bunch around if you search the interwebs), get one with a snapring to hold in the place as once you press the old balljoint out of the knuckel, the fit will not be as tight as a stock cold fit. A good upgrade is the j's racing rollcerter correctors( tall ball joints)....
