Hey guys, i have just recently purchased a new set of bushings from energy suspension to replace my old, cracking bushings(car is at ~140k) but i was wondering if it would be worth it to wait for adjustable ball joints(was looking at the buddyclub since they come as a set for front/rear) and get it all installed at once, or should i just get them installed right away and get the ABJ installed later as i am currently sitting on BC coilovers with a one inch raise from stock(car is my daily driver and i have to drive down and up into a parking lot to get into my apartment and for my building for work). however my friend also told me that the ball joints are going to take more adjustment and be a bit more finicky than stock ones as well. i just wanted to see the full picture of how much the ball joints would do and if its worth getting now, or later down the line when i have a daily and can actually have the car lowered and more track ready at all times.

The Buddyclub ball joints (and all ball joints that impact the roll center) will lower the car a bit actually. If you're running a higher ride height than stock I don't see why you would get them over standard ball joints. Most people get them to add camber and/or correct suspension geometry after lowering the car.

I haven't had any issues with mine. They were set to the camber range I was looking for on install and haven't budged since.

okay, makes sense sorry about the kinda stupid question lol, gonna get the bushings installed later this week and see how that feels

B serious

If you can return the energy kit, I would.

Opt for hardrace if you want something low-buck, but semi effective.
