Topic: Camaro ball joint question.
Hello guys and gals long time no see.
A few years ago I peeled a ball joint on our (3rd Gen) Camaro, I was driving at the time, it was NOT fun. IT also resulted in a crash.
The joint in question only had two races on it, ever since then I have been paranoid about this happening again.
I replaced BOTH joints after that race with Moog Problem solver joints, and I even put a torque wrench to them to make sure it was as good as it could be. Now 3 years and over a dozen races later, no issues, and the joints still seem nice and tight. They pass the wiggle test fine.
Has anyone else had issues like this?? In Lemons or in any other type of road racing should I replace the joints after so many races?? Or if they are not sloppy just grease and keep going?
Lemme know lemon heads!
