  • Working on my brother Daniel's, 2002 Acura RSX. One day he said the car was making a lot of noise. Upon inspection found out the ball joints were completely worn out. So I stepped in as the bigger brother to replace them lol. Make sure to check your suspension components, especially on older cars with high mileage!!

    You`ve been very lucky with that lower-ball joint. Could pop, and break the wheel apart. You don`t want that on a highway.

    Good video sir. Is there a different ball joint between the 02 to 04 base vs type S ? So far I only find one option but wanted to confirm

    Good job! I know it's a pain when you don't have all the tools that you need with you. And I take it that your brother is a big RSX fan lol.

    Using this particular MOOG ball joint, did you find there was actually enough clearance below the CV joint housing and ABS tone ring to adequately fit and grease the grease nipple? I ask because I see that the original ball joint was a sealed design, and didn't have a grease nipple.

    Dude, please use a jackstand when looking up under the car. Friend had one of those sissor jacks collapse and almost pin his legs under the car.

    How do you know the ball joints are getting worn out? My rsx squeaks on from the front left wheel when driving through bumps and now it’s getting hard to steer... I’m a newbie so I need all the help I can get lol

    Damn dawg, that scissor jack is sketchy at best. Invest in some jack stands. May save your life.
