    ix inner ball joints.

    Why are the inner ball joints impossible to find, it seems. Anyone have a source for these? I'm looking for a set of these.

    Are yours bad? Mine are original and still going strong. Just pressed in a new outer on one side. But if you do need some, this may be helpful:

        I have outers I ordered from FCPeuro. I may just leave the inners alone. I rather replace all of them, if possible.

          Send me the link. All the ones they have listed are for rwd e30s, not the ix.

              About to do this along with every other serviceable front end part including blown steering rack seals. Can't wait.

              through my old research...

              NAPA HAD them listed until recently (as in until I just attempted to pull up my saved tab from a few months back), but a google of the part number does appear to have some promise.

              I have no idea what the security or legitimacy of these sites are though

              Should have ordered a set when I had the chance at good old NAPA :drink:
