    FS: Porsche 906 + 904 ball joints

    Hello!

    To make a long story short, I'm helping someone to restore a Carrera 6. I help finding parts.

    Many parts are NLA, and I had some ball joints remanufactured. He needed only one set, but to cut costs, I ordered several sets.

    I have already sold some ball joints to private owners, but I have a few left.

    I want to be clear with everybody: those ball joints are not 100% true to originals.

    The diferrences are comsmetics. The lower can't be disassembled (the original ones can) and the upper has not exactly the same outer shape.

    As far as I know, this is the only way to keep the original style mouting for the front axle.

    THose ball joints are linking the upper and lower front wishbones to the front upright.

    They are quality products, made by a specialised company using state of the art materials.

    Here are some picutures:

    A set consists of two upper (angled one) and two lower (straight). Price for a set is 500€.

    I understand it seems very expensive, but this is the price for "made to order in very smal qty" products. For information, the last company which had some here in Europe was selling them 1000€

    If you know someone who could be interested, please, feel free to contact me via PM.

    Thanks a lot for your attention.

    Olivier.

    I reply to my own thread.

    I only have one set available, and no contact in the US. But I know there are "a lot" of 904 and 906's in the US.

    Nobody here knows an owner? I know I'm a perfect stranger here and I'd do my best to reassure potential buyers and would comply with their expecancies...

    Thanks

    Olivier.
