Hadn't thought of that, but thats a good point. Ah well, the bearing was cheap and it isnt hard to change.You say you hear a clicking when turning the wheel? Your car have ABS? Might be something stuck to the sensor being it's magnetic. Worth looking at. I know it won't cause handling problems but it'll cause a clicking noise for sure.
I think the new a arms will probably solve your problem. I'll bet your control arm bushings are split. Changing the ball joints is pretty easy with the borrowed tool, I did it day before yesterday. I like Rockauto, as long as I order the right part I get the right part...
Yeah, I've replaced the ball joint before, and it's not hard, just time consuming.
