Is that balljoint serviceable (can it be pressed out and replaced)?

I see off the bat there is no zerk fitting for grease, its a pretty easy location on the BJ (no significant rotation), but still if its a cheap piece or the seal around the boot is bad ive seen balljoints go very quickly (<5k mi).

What are your bushing options for that piece should you decide to replace (are they OEM diameter)?

Lastly just curious whats wrong with your arm?

 

nothing is wrong. just trying to make it as solid as possible. thought about pressing the two bushings out an seeing what i could put in their to make it solid. an the ball joint would be hard to get to. would probable have to remove hub.
just trying to make ready for the track.

 

I have not got around to it, right now I have Whiteline bushings in the upper a arm location and would like to get a set of custom Delrin bushings made.

 

if it was me, i could find better things to spend that $800 on, my theory is if it aint broke, dont fix it. that is the only reason i havent replaced my clutch yet

 

thanks terrasmak. i will look into delrin. was thinking about getting the specs an calling spl an seeing if they have anything that would work or could make.

 

if it fails at the level i will want to push it their will be more the 800 in damage. also i dont think it will fail but i want to remove any slop or play.
