Mine went out also, but both. I have the tein ss coilovers also. Due to the low drop and negative camber mine went out. Instead of replacing with the stock junk, I went with SPC's camber adjustable ball joints. Much better plus they are just 60 dollars more then the stock ones.

would a bad ball joint cause a floating feeling in the steering with a more than occasiional dart in one direction or another and almost like one wheel does the darting?

whoa, I hope I don't have that, I had a bent control arm before, and besides a bunch of sqeaks and rattle, mine seems ok... for now. So what have you been doing, fixing it every time?
