Re: replace control arm or just ball joint?
on most hondas the upper ball joint cannot be replaced you have to buy the upper control arm but on the lower control arm the balljoint can be replaced but if u look at it the price of a lower control arm will cost you as much as it is to take the ball joint and have it pressed out buy the new ball joint and have the new ball joint pressed back in so either way you will pay the same.. to take the ball joint out u need a special machine. to do it the right way.. but if you know someone that can remove the loweer control arm then you will save on labor.. and if you dont replace bushing then you will have to replace ball joint because bushing keeps grease in side ball joint
