Opinions needed (ball joint replacement)

[Blue Ice]

I was wondering what some of you guys thought about this ebay product. I looked up the same parts on the oem mitsu web sight and just one arm alone cost over $200. :shock:

I need to replace them very very soon, so i was looking for feed back. And, yes, i plan on replacing the bushings before i install them. along with a lot of other... stuff :twisted:

Yup, buy aftermarket Moog parts.

Lifetime warranty and they have grease fittings.

Even other brands like Spicer are better and cheaper than stock.

[bronxbombr]

Thats all i sell is moog parts.

I went to Advanced Auto and bought mine for $92 with taxes.

[DOHCstunr]

i shit you not,
last summer before the myrtle beach meet i went to my dealer and got a brand new lower control arm for 40 bucks.

[phizz2k]

Sport Mitsubishi orlando sells em for about 50 each...

[bronxbombr]

Some dealers sell em for around 50 or so but what they do is stock alot of it quantity and i kid you not if you look around the joint cover you will see it say moog.

[Blue Ice]

so $50 si about the same as this ebay, but i should be able to get them from a dealer which will be better, and faster

[bronxbombr]

I believe the 50 dollar ones are the cheap shit, i had bought one before from my old job when i couldnt afford moog and i tell you that thing lasted about 2 weeks before the bushing tore right up and the joint went bad. I think it had to do with my drop but i never had that problem when i had the good shit on my car although it was a whopping 90 bux. You get what you pay for.

[Blue Ice]

so how much can you get all four arms for if i ordered them through you, that and a manual front tranny mount

[bmxmike]

Same here as its looking as if im goin to have to replace my ball joint. And i dont want to spend tons cause i just replaced them bout 5 months ago!!! Bought some from Autozone and it seems like there allready goin out.

Also is moog the best aftermarket joints for the car? Just wondering as if i do want to get the best and if it means i have to spend some then i guess i can just wait to drive the g :(

[ct96mitsug]

i think there was a factory recall on the front lower ball joint on the 7g. not positive but you might be able to get it replaced for free.

[bronxbombr]

Ya there is a recall for those, i got the letter but never went being that i changed em on my own already.

[bmxmike]

Same here but of course it broke by the time i found out...1 day after i bought the car, put the car in reverse backed out, put it in drive and like 5 seconds later broke and had to get it towed home....Luckily wasnt going fast or i might not have the g anymore

[Khalid_Galant]

Thats all i sell is moog parts.

Hi bronxbombr.
I´m looking for a complete set of motor/trans mounts, is that something you can get? How much will they cost?

The car is a: Galant 94 2.0 16v 5sp manual

[Joker96]

i got mine broke and tire fell and car hit the ground yup it broke my passenger side axle in the process 60$ the axle 42 the balljoint and else the only problem i find with the arm is the low quality and they dotn have the grase holes and i REALLY recomend on you buying ones with the grasing holes they will last a lot longer mine just lasted around 8 months

[Galant Kid]

Will that ball joint issue cause shaking that starts at 50mph, and increases with speed?

[6G72gearhead]

Blue Ice, dude, I'm insulted, I can have them for you by the end of the week easy. And I can get you a discount at my Orly's.
