3200 Lwr front control arm ball joints

[tappets]

Hi to all,

there's plenty of threads on this common issue (worn ball joints)............has anyone been successful in refurbishing these or are we stuck with replacing the whole arm assy at big cost . I have both Lwr arm joints with slight play on my AC which I only picked up during a de-scale/clean of the front end!

Thanks in advance chaps.

For front lower ball joints you have to replace the whole arm eurospares do a pattern at £395 plus vat. Rear upper and lower arms are the same but you can get a replacement rose joint bearing for the adjustable rear tracking bar.
