Well apparently i think my ball joint is messed up. And i was looking for replacements and apparently HONDA doesnt sell them? Only aftermarket on ebay. Or the buddy club ones. The buddy clubs are about $185 and say they for dropped cars. Can anyone chime in on what makes these so special.
Here are some pix of my damage :(

There are after markets you can get. i bought mine at napa for about 40 bucks there are cheaper places as well but i wanted to get them done at the same time i was doing my wheel bearings, the buddy club ones are nice they are taller so if you have a lowered car it would lower the control arm to make it closer to what the stock geometry is supposed to control the roll center of the car,

Same here. Picked up my Moogs from Advance for just under forty bux a piece. I am pretty confident that the Moogs also come with grease zerts. If not this application, than i am thinking the S13, as i did that car around the same time.

Moog does come with a grease fitting. Go MOOG if you're only dropped a little or stock height. Deff get RCA ball joints if you're excessively lowered.
