BALL JOINTS

Post by Ashley »

Ok fella's here's one for you.
Tried to fit new lower ball joints today guess wot they dont fit.
Problem is i can't get the back plate's on there catching the arm's.
Anyone had this problem before.
The year one catalog say's 1966-72 B-Body all the same.
Any help would be most aprreciated.

Ye fella got the right side.
The old one's have a grove cut in the side for back plate clearance.
These don't.
Look's like Mr Eady gets a call tomorrow.

Ok fella's word of WARNING.
Be carefull when ordering lower Ball joints.
Some make's are different shaped arm's so you can't get the back plate's
on. I ended up with MOOG joint's that will fit.
Any doubt talk to Dave Eday.
