    Strut mounts vs. ball joints. How to tell?

    How can you tell which one is worn? When I hit bumps, the front rattles. Feels like it's down low where the control arm is. The car has been on H&R race/Bilstein sports for a year and 2 months ago I replaced the CABs with M3 ones.

    As soon as you get the ft wheels of the ground you can tell if its the balljoints by grabbing a wheel and moving it around .
    You can also look at them with the wheel removed .

    You should also be able to bounce the ft end with the hood up and look/listen closely to the upper strut mounts .
