OK so mines a MKI, but the ball joints are the same.

I have had a knocking sound coming from the front of my car and also steering wobble since I bought it. I put it down to drop links. I know these need replacing as I can feel movement in them even when the car is on the ground :eek:

I am now wondering if it's worth doing the ball joints at the same time... How difficult is it to swap the joints over? What is involved?

Loving the MKI! I have now realised this was the car for me. I shouldn't have waisted all my time and money on the Corolla GTi when I should have just got a MKI in the first place.

Picked it up off eBay (after viewing it) for £280.00. Initial "restore" budget was looking to be £300 - £400, but it's now looking closer to £600 due to needing an engine swap...
