Best Answer

it's a whole lot cheaper to replace the whole wheel bearing set. The wheel bearings have nothing to do with the ball joints. The ZX2 uses McPherson struts and only have a ball joint on the lower end of it. The upper end is attached to the shock tower with a large bushing. The ball joint stud attaches to the bottom of the spindle assembly and the ball joint assembly is attached to the lower control arm with two bolts.
