i replaced my LBJ last year with cheap units @ 200k miles. well now at 228k miles, they squeak. sounds like a ford explorer. i want oem this time and it shows that the lower ball joint only comes with a complete knuckle. probably why i didnt get oem last time. anyway, whats a good aftermarket brand like moog or similar that will last a long time? or am i looking at parts diagram wrong?

Moog lower ball joints are pretty awful for the CL/TL/accord. They squeak like a rusty door. Try getting 555 brand, autozone gold one were 555 the last time i check. Made in Japan

I don't get in here much anymore, that's why this post is late.

The 98-02 Accords and 01-03 CL Type S share the same suspension parts. I used mostly Acura CL Type S front suspension parts on my 01 Accord, even the CV axles because they are a little bit thicker than the Accord. I used the Accord lower ball joint with the Acura parts due to the fact the Acura Lower Ball joint is not sold separate - WTF?.

I show Acura and Honda part number for the Knuckle is the same.
51210-S4K-A00 (RIGHT - passenger side)
51215-S4K-A00 (LEFT - Driver side)


You can use the Accord lower ball joint. It is sold as a stand alone part on BKHondaParts.com and appears to still be available.
Accord LOWER BALL JOINT part number is : 51220-S84-305
