ball joints

[ejkh87]

I have just bought a yamaha banshee and it has +2 a arms on it. One thing ive noticed is that the wheel assembly has side to side play. I was looking for a set of ball joints for it but dont have any idea where to start

What company are they? try the company that made them. If they are a fairly well know company, like ASR, ROLL, Burgard, Lonestar,etc they should have replacements on hand.

how do i find out who makes them. Would it just be easier to get a set of heim joints. If so where could i get those

Post a picture and surely someone on the site can identify them. I know ASR sells heims for $30 a set on ebay. The Ford ball joints everyone buys are around $16 a piece at most parts stores.

the main thing you need to find out is if they fit the stock size hole in the spindle OR if the spindle was reamed bigger to accomidate (sp) them. if they use the stock size give Ricky Stator a call, He sells direct to some of the A-Arm makers I hear. if they have been reamed give BURgard a call.

you can find balljoints relatively cheap, make sure you get the right ones though

if you go the heim route try chassisshop.com, camrburg.com, kartek.com, mckenzies.com, or locally go to a race car shop. they are commonly used for fabrication.
