    Re-doing my suspension and need an upper and lower ball joint. Looks like Superformance in UK has them for £79.
    Seems like the best price I've seen.
    Does anyone know a better place to get them?
    Has anyone gotten ball joints from Superformance?? Any input?
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Got all four ball joints (upper/lower on both sides) at Maseratisource. Decent prices. They all have the castellated nut and cotter-pin, which in my opinion are better than the nyloc versions.

    Just an FYI. I went with MaseratiSource. They were a third cheaper (over $100 less) than anyone else in the US and free shipping.

    Ordered yesterday and got the FedEx shipping confirmation today. So not slow and good communication (I guess).

    I bought some on eBay for a DeTomaso Pantera that appeared to be identical to the MaseratiSource ones. Just happened to find a pair at a screaming price. This was after hearing from the proprietor of MaseratiSource that the upper ball joints sold for the Pantera are identical to those sold for the 308. They installed fine.
