....No seriously.

My upper ball joints are shot...

Due to them being shot from the suspension lift, I cannot get my camber aligned. The tops of the front tires point outward from the car, and the lower cam is completely turned out.

So.... what do I do? I checked at Toyota, and it costs $51 per ball joint.

Seems like if I was going to go through the trouble of replacing them, I might as get some new upper a-arms.

What should I get : Total Chaos, All-pro ... what?

Check out a downey catalog if you have one, if not call and get one its worth it

So, im guessing they have A-arms?

Or are you talking about the ball joints?

Could you just tell me what the price is for the a-arms? (upper only) and the ball joints? I cant wait much longer, my tires are getting shot, and I have a lot of driving ahead of me in the next month.

Im going on my yearly baja surf trip, and thats a good 800 miles each way... :/

yes they have a-arms, but also they have long travel ball joints just for that reason, and slip yoke for the half shafts, sorry cant give you a price the book is at home and im at work right now

I just checked the site, I know they have limited stuff on there, but, they only had the 2nd gen a-arms.

Maybe, I'll just call them up in the morninga nd see how much they'll cost.

Anyone else have any opinions on this?

Total Chaos are like $600

Chaos arms are more $ than Camburg but you have to give them credit for being the first to bring this product to market. Camburg has one advantage though and that is that they use a F-911 (super strong) 5/8" bolt with custom misalignment spacers that allows more angularity than other arms that use 3/4" bolt. I think Kartek carries both so try calling Mike or Pat and they can fill you in more...

GRNTACO

A 442 should have bigger balls than that.......

WATRD

I was going to congratulate you for getting married, but this thread was about something else...

Bigblock

A 442 has bluer balls than that.Anyway how much + camber are you talking about? 1.3-.1 degrees is in spec,set the toe and rotate the tires every oil change.

aviator

try to remember where was the last place you had them and start looking there... or you could ask the wife/girlfriend if she moved them and if so where she put them...
I'm sorry I saw the title of the thread and i could'nt resist I see a lot of other people could'nt either happy holidays Aviator

I just picked up some new ball joints at Advanced Auto Parts/Checker for $23 a piece. They are excellent quality upon inspection, TRW I believe is the brand... they come from Japan so they should be good! My Toyota dealer said $37 a piece. Good Luck... I'm having fun getting the ball joints installed.... so will you!
