Ball Joint Questions
 
I have a 96 accord ex. I need new front upper and lower ball joints.

Can I get the upper ball joints pressed out of the control arm?

Do the lower ball joints have to be pressed out and pressed back in?

Are both upper and lower balljoints the same and interchangeable?

you need a whole new upper control arm. they do not sell the upper ball joints separately. but the bottom ones are sold separately, so you don't need a new lca. both are pressed in.

if you're in need of a camber kit you could replace the uppers with adjustable ones. probably cost you the same as getting two whole new upper control arms.

Yeah, I'm definitely doing that with my car. The SPC camber kits cost about as much on nopionline.com as a good set of control arms would anywhere else.

how much are adjustable ones each?
