Ive heard the search button works pretty well. No sqeaks or nothing...LOL

Nah but for real... Whenever it comes to your engine or your suspension, dont cheap out. With the exception of the intake.... You get what you pay for, for the rest of the stuff.

I'm gonna be ordering my camber kit this weekend. As well as 4 new rotors. But anyways. How hard is it to install the ball joint ones? I searched and didn't find squat on installing those, just the control arm ones.

How do you get the ball joint out of the control arm and the new one in? I'm sure I can get the old one out with a hammer and screwdriver, but how do you pull the new one in? Take off the control arm all together? Or just hammer it in while in the car? Or is there some trick?

I am also replacing all my rotors. I have never done this myself before. Do I need new bearings for anything? Or is it simply pulling the old ones off and putting the new ones on??

BTW... My car is gonna be paid off this month!!! YAY

You can just pry and snap the old ones to get them out, to get the new ones in though, you need a hydraulic press

Thanks bro... You have no idea how big of a load off that is. Thats 300 bucks a month that can go to fixing it, then fixing it up.

Dunno, my suspension guy didn't have to take my upper arm off, he just pressed them in from underneath I presume (i wasn't there to see him do it)
