Maxi Ball joints
IanBrace - 26/6/09 at 06:56 PM

Hi, I've at long last ripped my front suspension off to paint things and fit new ball joints. Fortunately the bottom one I guessed at is correct at 1977 ish Celica. Still not sure about the top one. I bought a Maxi one on Ebay but it never arrived.
Now I can get at it, can anyone tell me the hole centres of a Maxi joint? If it is the same as mine has anyone got a spare or know the QH part no.

That may depend on the manufacturer? Your best bet would be to measure the thread diameter and pitch to identify which thread yours is
