why would you buy a ball joint for a sentra when you have a 240sx? You can buy replacement ball joints from any parts store. Just go buy moog or trw ball joints.

actually, B13 is 1mm too big.

89 Sentra front balljoint is a direct replacement.

well the ball is 1mm larger on the B13, but the shank and threads match.

here's an entire thread on this...

Not for the rear, they're not available. Pay attention please.

my moog part number is k9633
whereas the moog number listed here is a k9449
is the difference just the 1mm ? or is the shank shorter???
