my front bushings/ball joints are shot (4th gen) so I'm looking for a lowish mileage set pretty cheap, already have a set of lowers ready to go on

thanks

I appreciate the input but I'm just looking for a stock low mileage set for now. It's a fun daily driver and with 115k miles on it and I'm just doing a little freshening up while I'm swapping out the front shocks. I have some 30k mile lower arms, 30k mile hubs, and newer Koni SA's going on at the same time.

The install doesn't scare me it's just that at $50 each for upper ball joints and $30 for each pair of upper bushings it seems more cost effective just to find some with reasonable mileage ready to go. I know a lot of guys go tubular so I figured someone on here might have some perfectly good ones just sitting around taking up space. I thought about the poly route with mine but if I buy a whole set I'll still end up having to buy rubber caster bushings and all new ball joints anyway, and I got enough camber out of stock bushings to not need the offset ones since it's a daily driver. For now I think all I need is some that aren't shot, anything will be an improvement over my current ones and I'm on a tight budget.
