I would get it replaced sooner rather than later

Yea, I would get it replaced. Cost me 40 bucks from Honda and 20 for the old one to get pressed out and the new one pressed in. Good luck, replace it now before it gets worse.

Re: Lower Ball Joint... (teameracer3)

ive been driving around with torn boots(that is what you are talking about no?) for about 6 months now. I was set on replacing them when I dropped my tranny but I seem to have misplaced my boots

But yeah you should get it fixed soon, better than replacing balljoints altogether.
