Dont think the ball joint snapping on the motorway will have anything to do with suspension mate.

Whats it lowered on? Just springs or shocks aswell? Cant really lower a car and not expect it to be stiffer.

It says in the original post its springs and shocks mate
Anyways, lowering the car will make it stiff as said.
