Default Lower ball joints Wrx and sti differences

I need two new ball joints for Tüv ?
The previous owner put new parts in the trunk but they are too small and long for the arms
A friend looked at it and told me that my Car has Sti Subframes and arms so are the ball joints different on a sti ?
Does someone have a part number for the sti ones for me ?
I have a my93 wrx

No difference.

Balljoint is the same for classics, newage, hatch, foresters and legacy

Aluminium transverse links have a cone insert which is maybe why you think they are small.

If the cones are not damaged then they should be ok
