[QUOTE="reivaxtorres, post: 244586, member: 8890"] so you do know that our control arms, even tho they sell replacement ball joints, are pretty much a one-time use thing, right? you can replace them, but you have to be careful and make sure the new ones are properly pressed in or else it may come out. the way ive always known, you have to take the control arm off and press the old ball joint out, and press the new one in. not sure if there is any special way of doing this on a car, but thats what ive been told. (ps. taking the old joints out will basically enlarge the hole where the ball joint goes. if it gets too big, ur basically installing a loose ball joint.). like i said, its just what ive heard, havent had any experience with them (aside from installing the cobra control arms) [/QUOTE]
