what do i have s13 or s14 lca???

[stevecorrado88]

ok so i own a s13 with 5lug swap came with the car, my right lca broke so i got another s13 lca and tried to install it and the ball joint wont fit into the knuckle. My knuckle part number ends with 70TR and the lca that came on the car says U 1 1, the new s13 lca Says H31. Is my knuckle and lca S14??

You have to use S14 ball joints in your S13 LCA if you have S14 knuckles...

You can also tell a difference in S13 vs S14 lca's in the tie rod bump stop. They'll look completely different, as seen below...
