Is it worth the money to get low friction ball joints?

yes i think so i run the howes and love them the howes take some good abuse they will bend in ways you never thought and wont break will at least let you finish the feature.
and they free the front end up take the mystery out of if there is a bind in the front end

The Howe ball joints are awsome... Besides the price.. But.. well worth it. We run them and dont plan on buying anything else.

I've had plenty of front end hits with the 1" longer and standard Howe balljoints. Never snapped one.

i've run the howes for about 5 years now and love them. simple design and easy to swap out at the track change lengths ect. i've bent them in nearly a 90 degree angle and have never snapped one. qa1's look nice also but they look like they have to many parts. price is nicer though.

i run the qa1 on my street stock and have took some good hits and even hit the wall once last year and still didnt bend one, but if u dont take ur time when taking them apart u will strip out the two holes on top

another nice thing i like about the howes i dont know how the others are desigend but you can change the just the pin in them and thats nice for the lowers at thetrack rather then changing everthing else
