Ok well I need some new ball joints on my front lower control arms because they are pretty cracked up.

So now I was wondering should I just get the moog ball joints for like 70 bucks for both or go throught PDM and get the whole new arms with the whiteline bushings? Will the whiteline bushings make that much of a difference??

I am setting her up for autocross and maybe eventually the track in the distant future. Also my control arms are in pretty good condition I.E. no rust or bentness. So what do you guys think

P.S. I love how there is a suspension forum here. No other sites have one just a motorsports one.

Well, if you're going to be taking your control arm off and replacing ball joints, why not buy the whiteline bushings too? And if you don't like doing that kind of work, just buy the whole replacement arm with the joint/bushing already intact.:)
