so i need a front camber correction kit, but i'm wondering which would be better...cuz from my understanding, they do the same thing...i'm wondering should i get adjustable ball joints or the other camber correction kit for my accord? from what i've heard i'm leaning more towards the adjustable ball joint

Spherical bearings (ball joints) are loud and obnoxious. Go for the rubber mounts. You don't need hardcore accuracy for a street car that never sees the track.

well i had the rubber mounts for a while, and i think i just got a crappy kind, but they started squeaking real bad

Probably forgot to lube them first. Spherical bearings will always be noisy.

hmmm, maybe...so the rubber mounts are the way to go you figure? but make sure to lube them up first?

Yeah. A little grease will help them out. Also the rubber mounts will be a bit mroe comfortable (the spherical bearings don't absorb any of the suspension impact. They just send everything right into teh chassis and your butt. The rubber will help cushion that a bit. Since you've got a bit of a show car, you'll probably be a lot happier with the standard mounts).
