Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - Lower Ball Joints

My 2015 Coupe has an advisory on lower balljoints, which I am advised will be £1650 + VAT per side. The balljoints are available for £92 each, but need to be pressed in, which I understand is a pig of a job.

I think I am correct in saying that Si-Fab used to do them - does anyone else know of anyone who can press them into the upright ?

Being one of a diminishing clan of spanner jugglers I can say that I have replaced this sort of ball joint and am horrified at the outrageous quote for doing the job from your "Rip Off Team". This is a simple job and the price quoted is extortionate. The tool required is a very simple two part item consisting of a small horseshoe shape to hold the joint and a hinged bolt that is aimed at the central upper flat within the joint. Screwing in the bolt forces the joint appart - easy peasy. Suggest buying such a tool and take a look at some You Tube videos on the subject.

This situation is now resolved as follows

Williams Morgan could not source the ball joints, but do have the capability to extract the old ones and fit the new ones and Brands Hatch Morgan could source the ball joints, but couldn't fit them.

I have therefore bought 4 ball joints from Brands Hatch Morgan and will take them to Williams next week to fit.

The upper and lower ball joint are the same, so I have bought 4 and will keep them as spares.
