Lower Ball Joint Options
I need to replace my lower front ball joint (the one that goes into the guide link). However, the dealer only sell the entire link with the ball joint for $280!!!
Is there a VW or other ball joint part that is a direct replacement?
TIA

We carry all the ball joints/control arms.

Re: no, it's one piece, bushing-arm-balljoint.
I'll take your word on it. However, in the Bentley manual, there are instructions for pressing the ball joint out/in (and all the VAG tools to do it). Thanks.
