So my ball joints were install upside down and the downward force of the shock pulled them apart, of course i didn't notice right away and so it began rubbing and destroying my spindles, all while hammering my ball joints into ovals leaving them unusable. I want to replace them along with the spindles so I have a couple questions.
Where can i get replacements for these ball joints as they are clearly aftermarket A-arms and ball joints? or are these ball joints the same as the uppers but with spacers to keep them centered?
What aftermarket A-arms are these? I cant seem to figure it out, they look different from all the ones I've seen. There's no curve in the arm near the ball joint like most have so the spindles have a huge caster change from stock.
Lastly what are my options for spindles now? Holz are discontinued but the 09-10 dragon ones are the same? Anyone have an idea what those will cost at the dealership? or does anyone know where I can order them online that aren't ridiculously priced?
Here's what the A-arms look like:
And you can see how hammered out the ball joint is and the wear on the spindles:
