Re: wishbone/ ball joint replacement
in my opinion its simply not worth it.
Ive replaced the ball joints on mine at least once per side, generally lasted a year. My local garage also agree that buying the full new wishbone with actual mazda parts. This is what ive done. Ok they are more expensive but the balljoints are a pain to change. up to you but i would look at the full kit n kaboudle
