Stop buying cheap ball joints, and go OEM. MOOG is the only other brand I would trust.


Most of the time, OEM isn't much more.

MOOG suck thats what i buy lol. the price doesnt matter matter as long as it fixes the problem

waaa?? my buddy's autoX runs moog and he's never had an issue. IIRC, they've been on the car for 3 years, and he beats the piss out of it whenever he can...


What exactly is going on with the ball joints? How are they failing? I would highly suggest you look into replacing them with Honda parts.

Slammed into the dirt? What does your suspension setup look like?

if i knew how to post a pic with my phone i would do it lol. its about 2 1/2-3 inches lower than stock. the rubber cap looks like its been through a war and there is greese spatterd about and it gets real sloppy. it is also my daily, i avoid potholes when i can but the roads in upstate NY are shit

Get OEM. My car has been slammed for a year, and has been at it's current height for 2 years, (1 finger gap) and I've yet to loose a ball joint. Not to mention, they are the orginals from 98.
