Top Ball Joint

i have just bought a couple of replacement balljoints for the front end as my others were damaged and didnt trust the nut to stay on. I got these as link - Linky

however....the threaded end is too small to fit in the wishbone. can anyone recommend a site or something off ebay that will have the correct ones to fit a tiger avon? the ones i have bought were transit ones and cheap - the ones on the tiger site are expensive!

If the M18 ones are too small you need the later ones which were M20 x 1.5 and were I think track rod ends for the Mk3 Transit as opposed to drag links for the earlier model.
Ebay ones





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Hi,

Sorry to bring this thread back up but i used it to order my drag links but that ebay item has ended and the guy has run out (Got one off him, need two).... Do you guys think these will be the same?

No, that is for the track rod end rather than the drag link end. This is a useful list of manufacturers part numbers for the drag link end.

turns out the MK indy uses M18 size.

I now have a pair of the m20 ones if anyone needs them
