Ball joints for Xf genuine ford or aftermarket?
BigCav replied to mattymc's topic in Steering, Suspension and Brakes
they are hit and miss with supply, i sell a few hundred a month and some all from the same suppliers, some come in sealed, the next week they come in greaseable, really annoying when a customer requests a certain type as you can never gaurantee supply wasp i found to be more oftern then not greaseable but who knows these days, i last looked into it probably 2 years ago -

MOOG out of a Mercury is the BEST you can get, you just cant get them here trw/555/roadsafe paja are the best in aus at the moment, Wasp is a close 4th, for cheap stuff they have been good, trw and 555 are getting hard to find, roadsafe is available almost anywhere most of the time i use roadsafe -

The ONLY way to guarantee is to: RING 13FORD or EMAIL: customers@fordcrc.com.au You will need proof of identity and proof of ownership, so probably have to get your mate to do it, Scan your drivers licence and a copy of the rego papers and attach them to your email If it has these its a pretty good hint that its an esp but never a guarantee Red illumination on the instrument cluster & auto quadrant ,tramp rods, all stainless trim painted black, globe wheels, Marshal fog lamps and bilisteins

the only company i know who could potentially make them is retro rods custom sheet metal but there website and catalogue is down unfortunatly from my experiance though these sized panels are too hard to make, nobody other then major manufacturers have the press's large enough to produce such a panel
