dr_broon Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 Update on the ball joint saga... The new moog ones are a few mm too small apparently and don't fit snuggly in the hole. Some blue print ones on the way so hopefully they will be okay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Interesting you should say that. My Moog ones went in very easily. Almost too easily. Worried me to start with. However I kept an eye on them and they haven't budged at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Couple of light taps and they were in. With no retaining clip like oem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 Yeah, that's what the garage said. Apparently the guy didn't really notice with the first one, but the second one went straight in and they said there was a bit of play and were worried they could come out, especially without the clip that the Tegiwa ones had. Thing is, after tubs eating ball joints for fun, I'm sure that the the last ones that went in were moog and they lasted ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Very weird. Yeah I've always thaught Moog were one of the better aftermarket companies so used all there bits. .but yeah exactly same with mine. One was tighter than the other. But like I say not budged. Everytime I'm under there have a look as still in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_broon Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 That's one of the last bits. Panels are in getting painted, and ball joints... Hopefully the screens have been swapped by now as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
