Reply to "Mangusta Engine Removal and Rebuild"

MIke,

Pic of Ball Joint from the factory circa 1996.... cast body vs stamped temporary steel....!     My ball joints self destructed into multiple fragments....sorta like your a-arm bolt/nut affair!!! (That thing musta done all sorts of bad things on the roadways!)   Hopefully the shaft will clean up fine!

I need to defer to others and their posts.....whether this be the "big" one or the "small" one (upper(less load) or lower (more load) depending on A-arm/spring design!)......but what you shouldn't need to do.....is grind anything to get things to fit!

My crusty brain thinks that the Fiat Mechanic nearby told me..."they were a 124 Joint.....".

The tie rod ends should be standard X 1/9 items, untouched by DeT!

Progress!!!

Steve
