front ball joint

[stu]

Not sure if the arms and balljoints are the same as the pulsar But when i had mine done on the pulsar, my friendly mot station pressed them out and pressed the new ones in for £15

Some of the spurious ones for the pulsar are under sized and people put 3 spot welds on the edge as someone else said

If they are the same as the pulsar?? You have to take the wheel off, undo the nut on the balljoint, split the joint, undo the arm and knock the retaining pin out, then the whole arm should drop out with a little bit of wigling

I need to do my drivers side one, Nissan tell me thy are all one piece with the arm and want to charge me £115+vat I see that just the joint can be changed, a few calls to various motorfactors that Halfords deal with (i got a trade card!) tell me that this part is no longer available, its not even listed in the new Blueprint catalog

So, anyone got a source for these?

Thank you

Try your local motor factors mate, we get ours from a company midwest, i would of thought you had a motor factor like them around by you.

The ones for the gtir, from nissan are £145 each side, you have to buy the arm complete from nissan, but the ball joints are between £10 and £15 each from a motor factors.

Have you tried blueprint??
