I’m gonna do this on my Bugatti Chiron
Andrew Tate ?
Lol😂 if you got the money 🤑 for a dumb car like that why do you need to cut corners on how to lower it .. and 2nd question ❓ why the fuck are you lowering a Bugatti ? So you can cost yourself more money when you inevitably fuck your shit up from being to low ...
@RanjitSingh-ct3gbI bet it's the color of his tribal tattoo... With the sheen of his bald Head 😂

AHAHAHAHA💀
This is one of the better videos i have seen on this. Great job on creating this "how to video guys". You now have a new subscriber!!! 🙂
Nice job and I did this to a base cab Tacoma. I had to make my own lowering kit for the front and a lowering block was available for the 3rd member (1"). Project Runt build or X Runner Jr. .
Would you share where you purchased those lowering ball joints? I really want to do this on my 2013 Honda Accord Sport sedan. Thank you in advance, Rick
This setup is more expensive and more difficuilt to install then lowering springs
That’s exactly what I thought when I heard “ball joint”. I’ve installed springs on several cars, and replaced ball joints on dozens. Not once have springs been as difficult as ball joints.
where can i find those thing.. and is there for any other model
How much would it cost to do something like this? Parts and labor
Please tell me y’all have these for a dodge charger sxt v6 2012???? I have eibach pro kit with the eibach struts and the ride Quality is really really bad over bumps and imperfections on the road. And if y’all do how much for front and back? I’m looking for a 1.3 front drop and a 1.4 back drop. I kept my old struts and springs just incase
Looks good.where can I find those for my 07 Chevy Impala SS ?
What is this process called? If I want to this for my car. What should I tell the mechanic?
this is super ... can i do this to a 1999 Nissan gloria y34 ?! ... it is really hard to lower a y33 gloria without changing springs and shocks ... and would be very pricey as well
Where are you guys located ? This car seems pretty common here and I want one
Will there be improvement in handling after doing this?
Where can you get the large balljoints?
do you know if they sell these parts for mercedes gla250 4matic?
Would this be available for my 07 Toyota 4runner??
Where do I get these parts? Under what name? Thanks
Where do I find the parts needed in this video for my 06 Audi A3 2.0T?
Will this work on a golf 6 but only the back
I want to do this to my GTI! Going too low on colorado roads is a death sentance. Thanks for the video
Yeah I live in Fort Collins and was able to get about 2 years on my g37x with a 4 inch drop. Ended up cracking my flywheel and torque converter from all the bottoming out :(
@Werk4Cash oh no! Sorry to hear that. Some of the potholes I saw today had me debating a jeep
That’s pretty amazing 🤩 how about getting that done on a new Honda Accord ? Would you guys do a video?
Yeah and Lexus IS350 😂😂
This is great. I like to get my car lowered 3/4". Where's your shop located?
What kind of car? S2000?
@@BalladeSports My mistake, I thought the front plates are universal. I have a 2019 fiat 124 spider. I suppose you guys do S2000 only?
Where can I buy those and is it compatible with honda ek?
Where can I find those joint for my foxbody mustang
Would love to do this to my A90
I am trying to help an 86 year old neighbor with her RX350. It is WAY to high for her, and she can't afford another car. Where/how would I get lowering ball joints for her? Can I get to 2-3" lowering? Regards, Bo
This method is awesome if the aftermarket promoted and supplied a wide array of these longer balljoints.
Nice. 💯💥
Can this be done to a citi golf 1
Can you do this same method for a 2015 VW GTI Autobahn????
are these available for citroen berlingo?
Do they make something like that for a 2007 Toyota Corolla?
Can this be done on a 2005 civic lx coupe. If so what are the parts needed called. This vid was perfect. Guy here wants to cut the springs
Cut springs? wow the return of the 1990s! Yes it applies to all cars, but making the part is another story. Civic LX might not have any support.
@@BalladeSports how bad is it to cut the springs about an inch or inch and a half. Will it affect handling, cornering ect. And thanks for your help to I really appreciate it.
@@itsjusti4262yest it affects it badly. Better off getting lowering springs for that
So you fit a snap ring to stop the ball joint from backing out , yet the castle nut that holds the ball joint to the lower control arm completely passes the split hole so that safety of a pin is completely omitted. What does your insurance provider say about altering the suspension geometry in this way ? Do you even tell them ? Manufacturers spend a lot of time and money building safety and more importantly, predictability into their suspension systems. What are your caster ,camber and toe settings ? How much does this modification alter the KPI and slip angles ?
LOL ...this comment coming from "Mazda man" , Mazda's are the most mod. cars these days because of poor design plus Mazda will not recall anything (power steering come to mind) even on recalls (lower A arm bolts) was limited to N.A. because they got sued ....rest of the world has to live with the risk or pay to change the bolts.
Do you sell (or can tell me where to purchase) the parts to convert other vehicles? I need for a 2012 FX35.

It turned out nice. Good height. I really want to do do that to my 07 mazda 3. The previous owner took off the 15in steel wheels and and added 17's, but but the front sits so high. I want to eventually put 18" rims on the car, so I'd probably wait till those rims go on and the worry about the height
You have special needs. Bigger wheels don't raise ride height 😆
Wheel size goes up, tyre size (side wall) comes down, so the rolling circumference is the same. Are you 12¿
My gawds sir. How many s2000 u has?
can someone please tell me where i can find these larger ball joints i rlly wanna do this to my 03 eclipse
What about wheel to wheel housing clearance? Are there any problems keeping the stock dampers/springs with this setup? Cause of course the clearance is going to be reduced, basically around the same amount has been lowered.
You always run risk of contact with fenders and qt panels when lowering a car.
@@BalladeSports do you have anything for a Volvo 245
Can I do this to 2023 Audi Q5 Sline ?
How do I find these parts for my vehicle?
Where can i buy the parts to lower my nissan maxima
How do I find these for a Dodge Charger
Is this possible on a wrangler?
The word SKETCHY comes to mind.
How so? Extended ball joints are very common to correct geometry on lowered cars. But it also has the additional affect of lowering the ride height slightly.
Don’t know much about cars apparently.
I wanna do this to my 05 Chrysler Crossfire convertible
Can this be done to any car like a 2022 toyota camry? I want to lower just for a more aggressive look but want to keep the stock ride comfort if possible, I was thinking about doing lowering springs but many people say that the shocks will need to be replaced with them so don't want to go through with all that on a newer car and just want a quick lowered look.
Thanks
new shocks likely won't be NEEDED with lowering springs, especially with a 2022 car, but any lowering will wear out factory shocks quicker than stock height. a lower ride height will reduce the amount of travel in the shock and the range of travel will be firmer = putting more stress on factory shocks
Coilovers.
Any comparable setup for gen 10 accord?
Good question! This might be something we will explore
Do you know if this will wk. On a 2010 forester?
I’m going to do this to joe
Does front and rear have to be replaced?
Nah, you can just do the front and the rear will lower on its own
How can I buy the parts for Porsche 981? Where?
I have a 987.2 Cayman S and this method can't be used to lower the car. I also have a 2013 Toyota Tacoma 5 lug base cab, that I did do the front suspension in the same manner, as it has upper and lower A frame suspension. You can do this due to the lower ball joint is affixed to a yolk that attaches to the spindle carrier with 2 bolts, just install the spacer and install the bolts. Basically the lower A frame is staying on the same plane and the spindle gets moved up, which lowers the car. I made the 25.4 mm (1") spacers and ordered the required bolts, grade 8, 25 mm longer than stock in the correct thread pitch. I had to pull one bolt to get the length and pitch (threads per mm). I auto X the Tacoma and it surprises a few to see how well it does on track. There are numerous changes done to achieve this package; it ain't stock.
Let me first say, "I'm sorry" for the brutal honesty that is about to come your way. I had the same reaction as most of the women you know when I thought to myself, " I wasted my time for an inch?!" Once again, sorry.
I have an 08 Lexus Is350. I put on 19” wheels and it still rides high. I really want that lowered aggressive look.
I like the comfort of the ride so really don’t want lowering springs or coils.
May look into this. Hoping they have this for Lexus IS
Have you try this? Tell the result
Where can i get that kit for my s2000?
balladesports.com/collections/front-ball-joint/products/ballade-sports-00-09-s2000-front-rear-roll-center-combo
We offer a combo price for this kit sold together!!
Do they have for any car
Did they use chamber plate for front and rear? I’m a li l confused hehe
do you do supercharger installs?
Yes of course. We have a RUclips instruction diy as well

This is called "Roll Center" adjusting.
How much would this labor cost?
About $250 in labor.
How much to lower with stock shocks?
Please email us at info@balladesports.com
WRONG! Most all coil over shocks are designed for the spring rate and application. The harder or softer ride is determined by the application i.e. track or street. News flash, coil overs and lower springs are two completely different things, you cannot relate one with the other when taking about lowering ability or ride quality. You just changed the rebound and dampening the shock was meant for relative to the tire size. No real test drive or mention of ride quality is a dead give a way.
Will this work on an fk8 type R?
Yes great question! This works on all cars. The amount lowered will vary on the spring rate of the vehicle
I wanna lower my civic eg8 !! 1 Inch
Still high tho😂
easy put concrete in your trunk or engine bay
Jealous here, looks easy but becoz our place don't have that tools everything will end by hammering.
10:00 no oOoOO.. 🛑 stop!!! .. I guess you guy's just throw away everything you destroy after replacing it....
Lower your car with lower height tires or wheels.
....leads alot to speedometer error.
@@michaelbryant4772 It works both ways too.Oversized wheels and tires.
No comments answered, sad
What do you want answered? This is made for one car. It’s up to anyone else to follow the work for their own cars.
Lol uh i think coilovers ride better than factory and probably less work than all that crap. No offense. Coilovers adjustable and are all available with adjustable dampening...soooo. what do i know though ..iv only lowered over 100 cars..trucks ..bikes...wagons.
Coilovers require cert in my country so having to pay 1000+ for coilovers then another maybe 800-1000 on top of that for them to be legal is annoying
Cut the spring then. This is a waste of time.
@@SethHollingshead cut springs also require a cert lol because they have to make sure springs are captive, lowering springs really only way to go but car frame has to be 100mm from the ground so cant go super low
Lol just add weight
Are these available for the front and rear of the w124 mercedes
Or just use a pickle 🥒
I am going to do this to my Lamborghini
