Hi
Mot'ing the striker Saturday morning, and need a bottom ball joint on the front.if I remember rightly its modified capri uprights, does this mean its just a capri bottom balljoint needed? Left it abit late I know but cant find a receipt for one so I assume they came with the uprights after raw modified them for me.
Cheers in advance

Think they r Sherpa m8

Is that not the top ball joint? Im probably wrong but I thought the BL joint was the top one that screws into the upright, on an inch/inch and a half thread and a taper into top wishbone. The bottom one on mine fits into the upright in a taper and is screwed into the wishbone.much like a trackrod end but beefier!

Dunno if its the same as the Fury , but that uses a Sherpa track rod end - right hand one . The screw-in top joint is a metro one I believe .

LDV sherpa track rod ends are the bottom balljoints (both RHT)

the uppers are vauxhall chevette

Sylva build striker, not sure if theres any difference on the Raw builds,
