yes you can replace the balljoints, but dont ask mitsu, they will tell you ya need to buy the whole control arm.

as far as the rack goes.. it depends on what kind of driving you will do. autocrossers generally wanna swap to an na manual rack because the power steering is a problem in that type of racing. the reason it is a problem is because in the higher rpms the power assist decreases. so given that autocrossing is low speed but gets into higher rpm, it becomes a problem because your steering feel will change. it is however great for road courses
