i tried a search on this and all i found out was the ball joints are only replaceable on B13's only....not too long ago i went to a shop and they said its possible to do it on the B14. I thought on B14's you gotta replace the entire control arm when the ball joints go bad...?!?! Anybody ever replace there ball joints on there B14....?? What brand did you use and part number??
:confused:

Its the same as the B13. I don't remember what part number I used, but it is in the archives (that is where I got it). I don't remember if the number was stored here or:

You'll need snap ring pliers and you can loan out a ball joint press from the autoparts store where you buy the balljoints (probably). To get the old ones off, just remove the snap ring and whack it with a BFH (Control arm off the car).
