Outer Limits 4x4 Board

not sure if this is a silly question or not but today the dropped drag link arm disconnected. I noticed the flat blade end on the link arm which i losened off and put the ball joint end back into the socket and then tightened up the joints again. But it just kept knocking out and not i can hardly put any pressure on the steeering without it popping out! Is this link arm now stuffed or????? cheers mitch

i'd say the bushes are worn you can buy the kit's from repco about $40 trade a end ebay may be cheaper haven't looked. 99% sure this is the part your talking about/ need to fix it http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TOYOTA-HILUX-DRA ... 5104a36713 close to repco price

Cheers mate, it link is several years old but it hasnt been used stuff all, im surprised it is so worn already! Cheers mitch

yeah migth also pay to measure the ball's to see if there worn. Also check hat the balls aren't loose in the j arm or pitman arm seen a fair few that have come loose

3mm is the allowable play in a ball joint.
