Lower ball joint part number
Posted: Sat Apr 06, 2013 8:24 pm
Evening
Needed to switch out the N/S lower ball joint and ordered a Quinton Hazell QR1774RHT as listed on the main website, attempting to fit it I discovered the part I had been supplied has a left hand thread!
I know that the Sherpa does have a left hand thread and a right hand thread version and had assumed that the suffix of RHT in the part number identified the thread, on the box under the part number it states "Tie Rod End -LH" is this correct and I have been supplied with the right box but with the wrong part in it or is it the same part number but with wording "Tie Rod End - RH" (or similar) that I need?
Thanks
Alex
