STi ball joints?
Has anyone ever tried to fit the JDM WRX STi control arm ball joints on their twin? Part #20206ZR100
https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/?id=61311  The "BRZ tS and STI parts List" thread has WRX STi (GR) front and rear control arm bushings listed as compatible with our cars, but nothing listed for ball joints. Front bushing: ST20204ZR000 Rear bushing: 20204ZR010 https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84332 |

It doesn't look like it - the FCA balljoints are inverted compared to ours and the STI ones appear to be retained in the knuckle by a bolt, whereas ours are press fit into the control arm.

My ball joints have 170k on them but they look normal! Would feel like a fool if looks were deceiving and I swapped out the other 4 bushings and not these. |
