New Ball Joint from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ib/1ASB...
This video shows you how to install a front lower ball joint on your 2003-2011 Honda Element. Car and truck suspensions combine a number of moving parts for safe and stable handling. The ball joint is the crucial moving component that ties those parts together. The ball-in-socket joint can wear out and loosen over time. Or, the rubber protective boot can tear, allowing contaminants to seize the joint. Bad ball joints are a common failure point on vehicle inspections because they lead to unsafe driving conditions. Fortunately, they are relatively easy to replace with the right know-how.
This process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2003 Honda Element
2004 Honda Element
2005 Honda Element
2006 Honda Element
2007 Honda Element
2008 Honda Element
2009 Honda Element

There’s no reason to take the knuckle off to change the ball joint on this vehicle. You show the job three times harder than it is

Good video

Typical crusted broken wheel speed sensor it's too common and cause a longer day than needed 😅😅 rust buckets for sure 😂😂 but hit the control arm the ball joint comes out easier but i see hitting the castle nut did what i figured shifted hurting the threads but who cares we're replacing anyway but to not deal with that headache better off buying a new knuckle 😆😆
