I snapped an upper ball joint and am in need of a replacement. I contacted HSD about it and they want $31 for the part and $18 just to ship it. And who knows how long that would take coming from Canada. Does anyone know where else I could get one? I understand that they're automotive ball joints but I have no idea what they would be off of. Its for a 400ex with +3 HSD a-arm, 14mm. I was hoping to have it fixed by this weekend. Might have to take the Odyssey out instead. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If they are just a standard straight 90 degree balljoint that is 14mm then you can get them from a 69 VW bug tie rod end. Pick it up at advanced auto or somewhere like it for under $20.
