DaveK 0 Posted April 10, 2006 yea when i was driving the car it was doing the usual jurking to the left and suspected to bushes but discovered it to be the joint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonmurgie 2 Posted April 10, 2006 Sounds like it... hard to tell what you consider 'loose' to be but a new ball joint is a tight as a tight thing so looks like new wishbone time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ahl 4 Posted April 10, 2006 If the ball joint can be moved about in its housing, so it knocks if you see what I mean, then its knackered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hengti 2 Posted April 10, 2006 is it just loose, or is there any play in it? when they're worn, you can usually move the pin up and down in the cup i wouldn't say it's a bin job if it's just loose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
