thwn i push in and out on the top of this wheel this balljoint i can see move in and out in the socket, i think that it might be worn down so im wondering if anyone knows what brand these are and where i can try to buy one, the others are fine.

It's a hiem not a ball joint. Looks like the ones that ASR arms use. When you replace it make sure to spend a little more money and get a better quality hiem then that one. QA-1 hiems have always worked well for me and I have used that brand for many years. I think the hiem that is shown is a 3/4" ball with a 5/8" threaded shaft. Please don't quote me on that. You should remove the hiem and measure it to be sure.

You need to measure the thread diameter. The length doesn't matter. Also measure the inner diameter of the ball and the width of the ball.
