| $3.75 |  | Ball Joints | | The ball joint is the small rotating joint on the bottom of your A-arm, and is located directly underneath the shocks. The ball joint is responsible for maintaining a tight connection with the shocks as the front suspension moves up and down. Understandably, the ball joint is one of the highest wear items on the car, and should be replaced every 30,000-50,000 miles depending upon the wear pattern. Loose ball joints will contribute to sloppy steering, bump steer problems, vibration in the steering wheel, and unusual handling problems. Replace your ball joints in pairs if you are going over your front suspension and would like to stiffen it back up to it's original specifications. |

Newer bushings are certainly an improvement over your 10+ year old rubber ones. Check your car prior to ordering - it is common to find upgraded and non-stock sway bars on older cars. While you're in there, replace older sway bar brackets and fasteners that may be missing or damaged. If you are experiencing strange rattles from your rear suspension or bizarre handling characteristic, then you may have a broken rear sway bar bracket. |
