Check with Dave H, he used to have lots of OEM lower ball joints but when he supplied mine I think he said he did not have many left. Worth asking tho.
I would also steer clear of the DMCH reproductions. Though might well be worth asking Ed's opinion, he might have another source?

Or you could visit D1, I just checked $287 each!! Shock

Looks great Dan! Is it just the body left to put on?

Excellent pics too - makes you realise how high the engine is mounted relative to the frame. Not brilliant for the centre of gravity! Oh well... Big Grin

I did get my bits done, but the ones you read in the mag were probably Julian's, he got Chris Parnham to do them. I used a local company for mine.
