If you didn't source from RockAuto.com, I recommend doing so in the future. Especially their make/model/year clearance section! Great way to score maintenance parts CHEAP! I can't remember the part, but the best deal was $4 for something that was going to cost me $50? (it was insane I remember the difference in prices) anywhere else. It only had a limited 90 day or something warranty, but it wasn't electronics or something that you couldn't tell within 5 mins of it working right.

I went back to order up more to re-sell on ebay, but they were sold out.

I love me RockAuto, plus their newsletter email is actually decent. Some cool cars featured.

interesting. Autowharehouse had a great deal going on with their balljoints, only reason I went with them. Will keep RockAuto in mind in future though.

5% off coupons for RockAuto can usually be found online too.

Don't forget Amazon either. Price is usually right there with RockAuto and often has free shipping.

got em installed today. Definitely felt an improvement. steering felt more responsive, front suspension felt tighter, body roll is definitely limited. And no more weird squeaking noises. Awesome.

Now, on to replace the struts, shocks, etc. :p

Go Cobra Bilsteins and 650 lb spring rate and 31mm stabilizer if you like tight and want to know how many individual bits of gravel make up the asphalt. :D 80 MPH off ramps with dash still parallel to the horizon is fun. Might find the contents of your pockets under the passenger seat.
