Thread: Ball Joint Options

Hey guys. I'm looking at looking at replacing the front control arm ball joints on my NX. One is blown, and the other one I figure I should replace it while I'm at it.

So what options are there for these? Are they available from NIssan?

If not what would be the best aftermarket option?

I'm looking at road racing this car in the future. I'd like to get joints that will be very durable.

Not available from Nissan.

I say Moog or Dana/spicer

Get a new control arm, it has the ball joint already pressed in.

What's the answer for someone who has already had ES bushings pressed into the LCA but they need to replace ball joints later on in life...?

Press out old ones and press in new ones using the existing arm.

Moog bj's. Cheap bj's can be found if you look hard.

I have 2 duralast that I'm about to install along with ES bushings. I've heard good things about the duralast ball joints.

scaaaaary

Have you ever had them?

Rockauto...they send ya Moog!!
