Thanks, just looked them up. You’re right! The price is way more than I expected. Weird how no one makes them for an acceptable price.

If you don't need a lot of adjustment look at adjustible balljoints. I'm running SPC in rear upper arms and they holds well. They provide 3 degree of adjustment.

I bought some front arms ages ago. They came from states. I had a lot of issues as they were too long and balljoints were on wrong angle. My friend did some cutting and welding and now they are fine. I have no idea if they are still available and tbh I doubt it.
