Message	Has any one had any success using aftermarket ball joints? If so, what brand? I'd prefer OEM, but they don't sell them. I dropped my subframe for various work, including replacing all my existing rubber bushings to solid spherical bearings. While I have everything apart, I might as well replace the ball joints since I'd be really easy now instead of later on down the road. Mine are not leaking however, and actually look to be in VERY good shape, so if no aftermarket ones come close to OEM, I feel perfectly comfortable just keepin gmy OEM units in place. Thanks for the help guys. This is the part I am talking about... This is what Im working on...about to push the stock bushings out... By the way, this is what the spherical bearings look like from SPL. Works of art... Thanks for the help guys.
