Hey, anyone ever tried removing the ball joint from superstrut parts and just replacing with another ball joint of same size??

Rumor is that no, they do not split apart from the arms. Although I'm convinced that there has to be a solution out there. I have personally never tried it, but if you could do it and were able to find suitable replacement ball joints you would be my (and everyone else in N/A with an st205) hero.

For all three arms on both sides plus the hub ball joint for both sides, I have gotten quoted between $1,900 and $2,800 for parts only

One of the downsides to having such a rare car.....parts are $$$ and knowledge on quick/cheap fixes is very limited.
