Ball joints

[hoop0069]

Hi, Sadly car failed mot front suspension had excessive play in lower suspension ball joint nearside, does anyone know the part no. cos eurocarparts has 2 options for this part which seem completely different.....many rhanks

Can you provide some more info about the car - all we have to go on is 'mercedes e280cdi'?

If it's a 211, the Lower ball joints are pressed into the hub, the lower forward ball joints are all part of the thrust/suspension arm.

Hi, its the w211,i beleive its the one pressed in the suspension hub,its just a question of ordering the correct part, there seems to be 2 on the eurocarparts website....thanks again

The one you are talking about is this one:
| Car PartsRetailer

Needs a special tool for removal and fitting, about an hour to do one.
