Product description
A worn tie rod end or drag link ball joint can be recognised by excessive play, something that is often only discovered during the periodic vehicle inspection.
If only the rubber boot is damaged, it may seem sufficient to replace just the boot. However, this is not advisable. While the boot was damaged, dirt and moisture may have entered and mixed with the ball joint grease. This may have caused wear to the ball joint, even if no noticeable play is present yet.
By replacing only the boot, you risk having to replace the complete ball joint at the next vehicle inspection anyway. Furthermore, you may have been driving with a worn ball joint in the meantime, which compromises road safety. A new ball joint is not a major investment, so why take this risk?
For some tie rod ends and drag link ball joints, you can choose between A-quality, which is equivalent to the original, and B-quality. B-quality is certainly not a bad ball joint, but you should expect a generally shorter service life.
To make it easier to identify the correct ball joint, the specifications indicate whether it has a left-hand or right-hand thread and the thread size of the ball stud.
The ball joints are supplied with either a self-locking nut or a castellated nut with a split pin. The picture shows which version is included.
If available (see Options tab), you can replace a castellated nut with a suitable self-locking nut, provided it is suitable for the installation concerned. The reverse is not possible because the ball stud on a version supplied with a self-locking nut does not have a hole for the split pin.
