If you change the hub, then you lose the new bearings. Aren't you meant to get both sides done, I did my b/joints last week. Piece of pish.

ball joints are the bit that goes between the bottom arms and the swivel hub. if its worse, why not take it back? how is it worse and what is it doing now that is different to before?
