Hello folks, I am in the process of replacing my ball joints. I would like to know if someone can recommend a good brand. Lemforder any good? any other brand or where I can get original part online?

 

Lemforder are oem fitment, can't imagine better. Talk to your local main agent about price/part numbers, you may be surprised at how cheap they are.

 

cheap to buy...a BITCH to fit!!! And very expensive unless you DIY esp the lower ones! Plus you need a realignment by somone who knows how to do it right...othrwise you'll have wheel shimmies and uneven tire wear for sure....not a great design frankly!

 

I got all four ball joints from British Parts UK for $67 before shipping. That will get you one ball joint at the dealer.
No name on them though.
Still, if they are rubbish (which I doubt) I will know by then how to change them quickly!

 

How much after shipping? I need to get some front lowers for my VP.

 

About $25 for shipping to CA. Still cheaper than most others.

 

british parts are o.e.m. spec' so no worries there, they'll probably be LF.

another couple that could be cheaper than main agent

 

It would be great if the British parts are Lemforder (LF) but they are unmarked so it is hard to say. They appear to be well made, if not LF then a decent Taiwan job?
