scobie140 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Just fitted my new(2nd hand but with new whiteline bushes fitted) lower control arms. It turns out they are slightly different. The recess where the nut for the ball joint on my new ones isn't as deep as the ones I've taken off. The nut now sits flush with the top of the bolt so I'm unable to fit any split pins. The ball joint seems like it's seated fine, had them slackned, tightened and wiggled loads before I stuck my finger in the recess and realised the difference. Anyone else running like this and had any issues? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scobie140 Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Turns out they are different part numbers. Not sure it will really make any difference. I'll loctite the nut on next time I'm under the car Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
