:=Well, I have found out that the popular upper ball joint from several aftermarket control arm manufacturers is the one used in a Plymouth Volare. Unfortunately it doesn't fit the Granada spindles. Real close but no. So I am after mustang or Torino uppers. I will post it when I find one. Total control of course make some that will fit for a mere 695.00. That will be the last course.
Have you looked at buying, borrowing or having a machine shop use a tapered reamer on the spindles to match the Volare ball joint. If its real close to fitting, should not be to hard to bore the spindle to the right size. Mind you, the tapered reamer must be the same size as the ball joint taper. A little measuring with calipers should determine what you need. Just a thought to save 695.00. Good thought, I do have someone that might be able to do that now that you mention it. Thanks! |
