I have gotten hugely varying results for different brands of balljoints. As far as I know, the factory originals were on the car for the first 130,000 or so miles, replaced with Moog units that clunked after about 15,000 miles. TRW replacements (no longer available) lasted about 40,000 miles (and I injected some Mobil1 grease into the boots as a preventative measure), now running Febi/Bilstein units.
I don't know why none of these lasted as long as the originals, including the ones from TRW, who supposedly made the originals.
