Ball joint dimensions
« on: August 12, 2011, 12:10:29 AM »
Does anybody have a spare upper ball joint they can measure and get some dimensions for me? i tried all the local parts houses but none of them carry the ball joint in stock. I'm looking for the measurements of the length from the underside of the mounting flange to the end of the stem, length of the threaded portion, and length of the tapered area.
