I have ordered many times from RockAuto, however I would never recommend buying any ball joint for the VX other than straight from Isuzu, one of those parts that you get what you pay for aftermarket vs. from Isuzu. Isuzu ball joints will last 3x as long.

I had my driver side lower ball joint replaced this month and decided to go with Isuzu OEM for exact reason LittleBeast said. The rubber boot was still INTACT, 84k, 12 years old.

Only replaced because I had to have lower control arm replaced, so while they were in the neighborhood…. Had I known about the Prothane LBJ boots, I MAY have just bought them and kept the rest in action.

Merlin mentioned the Moog brand as a cheaper alternative, sounds like that's the best aftermarket like Billy said above.
