54530-3S000 BALL JOINT FAQ
How often should I inspect the ball joints?
We recommend a visual inspection every 15,000 km or during every oil change to check for boot tears or signs of grease leakage that could lead to premature failure.
Do I need an alignment after replacement?
Yes. Any time a steering pivot point like the ball joint is replaced, the front-end alignment (camber/toe) can shift slightly, which may lead to tire wear if not corrected.
