Hi, I am busy rebuilding the front subframe and suspension on my 1963 MK2 Jaguar. The bottom ball joints are completely shot both ball and cups are badly corroded, is it possible to fit later sealed for life ball joints?

Regards Frank

Yes Frank,

I fitted them as I rebuilt my car and have been fine for 16 years made by Lemforden or similar I think.

Thanks Brian, a lot less hassle with sealed for life.

Started on the front brakes this afternoon so far so good just new seals and pads required.
