250 Lower ball joints

Discussion in 'Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, Exhaust etc' started by Dubz, Feb 8, 2017.

  1. My last MOT indicated that both front lower ball joints have play in them.

    Anyone recommend someone is south-west area to do these? (Swindon-ish ideally).
     
  2. I went to Aaron's auto in Derby.. Not exactly close to me, I'm in London.

    Theu charge £175 per side.
     
  3. it's on the list but if i can avoid a 5 hour round trip (just the driving) i would rather pay a little more to be closer (+full tank cost)

    Does the 175 include parts?

  4. Yeah I get you.. It is a long journey.

    Yes it's £175 including parts and fitting. So £350 for both sides in total.

  5. if it come to it i may have to, still cheaper that Renault at a guess
     
  6. Renault told me they couldn't replace just the joint, so they would have to replace the whole perfo hub which was in excess of £1000.

    Load of pish, You can get the carrier with the bottom ball joint for under 200 quid these days. Or just get the actual Swivel for around 60 quid.
