i found out it was bad because when I drive, my car would shake out of no where. it would also make noises (hitting metal sound) when i drive and hit bumps etc.

mines been doin that forever with the metal banging noise I keep an eye on it to make sure its not that bad but hopefully this guy on honda tech is going to take the one off his totaled accord and ship it to me for cheap. how exactly do you put it back on I know to get it off you just use a ball joint separator and its fairly easy but what do you do to put it back in?

I have a pair of upper ball joints off my '98 that seem to be in good shape if anyone would like to buy them. $30 for the pair plus shipping.

I installed a camber kit which included replacement ball-joints with an adjustable offset mounting arrangement, so I pressed the originals out and they're just sitting here.
