S-10 Upper Balljoint Question

Does anybody know of a company that makes screw in upper balljoints for S-10s? I searched all over and came up with nothing. I seen an add in the classifieds from Gauge thats for S-10 upper control arms and the picture has screw in uppers. I thought at one point that SD.com was making their arms with screw uppers too.

there is not a S-10 specific screw in balljoint.

Rumor was that SD was getting their own balljoint produced from power performance that was a screw in and a direct replacment for the s-10 balljoint, for their sport series arms, but im not sure what ever came of it.

But as far as something that is available to the public, there is one available that is a direct replacment. I saw on another forum, a person used a screw in balljoint from a mustang II and re-reamed his spindle to fit it.

ive been down this road a few times, i allways came up empty handed...i wish there was one.

Damn, well that sucks! Unfortunately if he had to ream his spindle then its not a direct replacement.

Whats the advantage of the screw on vs the bolt on or press on ball joints?
Just wondering

As far as I know, looks. I cleans up the look of the arms.
