So I noticed last night that my passengerlower ball joint has gotten to the point of being extremely unsafe. It has been squeaking for quitte some time now but I never got around to replacing it and when I did something popped up (I have a 7 month old, somehing ALWAYS pops up lol) I made a hard turn coming home from work last night, passenger suspension decompressed and resettled out of the turn with the sound of a ball peen hammer hitting to LCA.
So my question is this, what brand do you guys suggest I use for replacement?
I have used moog quite a few times, like a poly suspension kit for my old MN12 (When they still made the kits), sway bar endlinks, tierods, etc. But not ball joints.
I've also used a lot of "house brands" (ie. duralast) and had great results on my 85 z31.
So what's most popular here with you guys? What's the one brand you guys swear by? And how long did it last?
Any suggestions would be awesome.
