Isn't there a ball joint "flip" mod that takes a little stress off cv joints? Are you using these to do that?

Congratulations... but dirty comments are about to "cometh." :p

My BJ's got flipped long ago...in fact that is when I did the lift/flip how-to that can be found on this site.:bwgy:

Flipping the ball joints to the under side of the upper control arm results in a bit more droop (down travel) when wheeling, not much else that I'm aware of...:_wrench:

Yea, but for a toy you can get that stuff on pretty much any street corner.:bwgy:

Is that the set on ebay? I need lower ball joints and a friend at napa can get me good quality ones for like 40 each but the set on ebay comes with uppers and lowers for like 90 total.. Trying to decide if its worth it..

So how much is it for four good BJ's nowadays?
sorry someone had to.

OH the joys of changing ball joints!

etlsport...yes these are from ebay...with s&h the set was $95.

Zeus...when looking I saw prices all over the ballpark. This set (all 4 BJs and 4 rod ends) for $95 to $70+ each!

Crotchr...won't be to bad. I have had my front end apart numerous times. Dry desert=no rust! I figure 4 hours max for all 4.:bwgy:
