Re: Source for SVX balljoints?

just got my balljoints in yesterday. When I was paying for them, I asked the parts guy if the balljoints were gold coated since the price was so high. He laughed said hey you got 200k miles out of the first set, dont complain.

Car has been in this town its entire life, the dealer showed no records of the balljoints ever been done there and looking the old ones it appears they might be original. Is that even possible to get 200k miles out of a set of balljoints?

I know my EA82 eats em about every 50k miles. My OB had had them done once in 150k miles.
