Ball Joint

Post by Harry » Tue Aug 29, 2006 5:36 pm

The front nearside ball joint (which fits between a triangular bracket and the wheel) has been flagged up on MOT as needing replacement.

I don't think this is the same as a CV joint (but I may be wrong)

Does anyone have any idea where I get a replacement and exactly what I ask for.

My garage tells me it would be best to get the ball joint and triangular bracket as a combined unit???

cheers
