Just wondering if anyone out there has had to replace their lower ball joint more then twice? Reason to this is that i am having problems with my driver side ball joint. I've replaced it twice and just checked it today and it is out again. Any suggestions from you guys to what i can do? Let me know!!!!!

I'm over 80k and haven't replaced a thing. If you're replacing it that often there may be something else wrong.

wow, that is extremely unusual. i was helping out a friend with a tC who hit a bad pothole and initially thought she needed a new control arm and ball joint. after speaking with my toyota service manager about it, he said that the tC's ball joint rarely if ever has to be replaced. and low and behold, upon closer inspection, he was right, the ball joint was fine. if you're on your second one, there is something else wrong with your car that is causing it to fail.

my car is dropped with tein ss and im max'd out on the front. hmmmmm..... guess ill keep replacing them every few months till i get rid of the car. good thing i've got lifetime warranty on the ball joint (o'reilly autoparts).

that hopefully wouldn't work. you see, a warranty is a gaurentee against manufacturer defect. they'll replace it once assuming that there was a defect in the part that lead to failure. but if they see that the part is failing because your car is slammed to the ground with lowered suspension. they'll quickly wise up and call BS on you and make you start paying for them.
