Default MK3 Fezz Turbs lower arms

Just changed my lower arms ( failed MOT on rubbers , normal ) done the offside no problem

Then went to fit the nearside and the ball joint doesnt go all the way through the bottom of the hub so the pinch bold can go through, deplhi by the way ,

i even droped th ewhole weight of the car onto it and no luck at all


Measured the old one versus the new ones and the ball joint pin is 2/3 mm wider under the pinch bolt channel or just above the ball joint grease cap

has anyone had this before

and yes before u ask i have tried knocking shit out of my hub to widen the gap for it to fit up into but no luck

ill have to take it back 2 mozz so they can order a new one

FFS !!

cheers for help lads ! FFS


After alot of fucking around found out my nearside hub is off an xr2i and the ball joint hole at the bottom is a different size to match the different size ball joint


THAT IS ALL
