        Your car is lowered then? If not just get an oem set from Napa or sumthin cause there only like $ 50 per side. The TAS Autos are probably a lot more than that.

        When I lowered my CB I installed the Eibach adjustable BJs onto stock control arms.

          If you're running stock uppers with adjustable mounting points, or just stock suspension in general. Napa sells the upper ball joints, (yes I said just the ball joints) and they can changed out of your existing a-arms using basic tools. (A bench vise is very helpful, but it can be done with a heavy c-clamp and deep well 38mm socket) Oh they're $31 each, the whole arms from napa are $113 each.

            ^Cool I went to junk yard and hot a new upper arm with ball joint for $50.

            The haynes manual said the upper bj was welded on. Seeing how people have done it proves them wrong

              For some reason, the upper ball joints are the topic of much debate, even though they are used on everything from 89 civic CRX's up through Odesseys - I have 3 sets of JY arms that have lasted me over the years, but the Haynes manual (probably the same one I have) is wrong, they are not welded on. I'll get the napa part numbers and post them later.

                  I got the JY upper control arms like last summer. It's been sitting in my garage ever since. Back then i didn't join this site and never knew i could change the bj I only knew what the haynes manual said.

                    that is a pic of the regular replacement arms...not the ones with the adj. ball joints.

                    Do not buy napa...overpriced parts and the same quality as from every other auto store...waste of money going there.
