MK Front Lower Wish Bone Ball joint
mad4x4 - 3/3/03 at 02:17 PM

My mate has an old MK "Locost" with a de-dion axle. He has been told it is was "Wide Track.

The front lower wish bones are slightly short (2") than the current Indy. and have a flat plate at the end with 3 M12 (ish) holes drilled in a triangle ( One near the car and two outer most).

From this description does any one have an Idea what ball joint this would be.

I'll try and post a photo if no one answers.

The Cortina bottom joint has four fixing holes and the rear of the fixing plate is bent upwards. The Tiger Avon uses a joint with a triangular fixing plate and the book says that comes from a Fiat 124.
