I wouldn't do the McMaster thing.saving a buck is going to cost you more in
the long run.breaking a ball joint in the woods sucks! It's not THAT much
more to do it right the first time.I'd get the ones from Spiderbox
Performance.

Yes, that's it. It was the snap ring. I may end going the mcmaster
fix route (it's only $50 or so). There are options on eBay for $60-
$90. I'll probably get a snap ring in the mean time. Thanks for all
the help. I've got a reverse kit, a windshield and a soft top cover
to install this weekend. Thanks againf or the help.

on ebey, or go to an after market joint. It sounds like you broke the
snap ring that holds the joint onto the a-arm. If the joint is good
replace the ring.
