Big Mark Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Can some please tell me the dimension of the ball joint boot/cover on this rear arm? I need the diameter at the bottom (large diameter) diameter of the top (shafter diameter) and the height please. I got replacement boots for the rest from ebay but didn't for these as they weren't damaged when removed but have gone in to be powder coated so will need to be replaced. I need to order these today so time is of the essence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispot Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I have done a bit of powder coating at home, and I have to heat to 180 c for 15mins or so. I don't know if this applies to your ball joint but some have nylon or some other type of plastic in them, would they be ok at this heat required to set powder coating? just tried to measure mine (still fitted to car) the outer dia of rubber boot is approx 36mm so take of about 4mm for inside dia. lenth of rubber boot when fitted is 15mm. as for pin dia i can not measure but would guess at 12-15 going but the nut size that holds the swivel to hub. hope this helps. regards chris.

Big Mark Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Thanks for the dimensions. Not sure if there is Nylon in then or not but too late now as have dropped them off to be done this morning. Powder coaters didn't say anything so will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
