Ball joint bush
Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2010 1:38 pm
The wishbones on my bongo are in need of replacement. I have found a pair of second hand wishbones and am told that the ball joints are in good order. My dilemma is that there is a rubber sleeve that fits over the ball joint which has perished both on my vehicle and on the replacement wishbone/balljoint. I cannot seem to find anywhere that sells this rubber bush seperately or for that matter with a new ball joint or complete wishbone. So am i worrying about nothing, or perhaps is this part one of those that all bongonaughts know you can adapt froma an astra or similar! ?
What I am really saying is..... Do I need this bush to be safe and pass an MOT and if so does anyone know where I can get one! ( 0r two!)?
Please help as I am no mechanic and would be grateful for any advise on the matter. I will not be fitting this myself!!!!!!
