lower ball joints

[breeadamsyo]

hey guys! i’ve gone through about 6/7 lower ball joints now for my front end.. has this happened to anyone else? i’ve bought all but 1 from oreillys, the most recent one i bought from napa because i was thinking its faulty parts. i’ve replaced control arms and am starting to think maybe its an issue with the front end, any ideas? thanks!!

Have you tried Moog? Chinese parts don't last long.

Do you often use a high pressure washer?

I still have the stock ones at 310,000km. They have endured a 3" lift for half of that.

With jobber parts, i have best luck with greasable ones, and actually grease them regularly.
