Post Front Lower Swivel Joint
What are they from? The build manual has them listed as T0208 so I guess they're not Rover parts. I can't get my hubs separated from the current ones and as I'm about to replace the hubs with ABS ones it's just easier to replace the joints. If anyone's interested I'll post my experience of fitting MGF Mk 2/MG TF ABS (in conjunction with electric handbrake and Z-Cars rear arms).

Cant help sorry with the bottom joint as I bought the complete brand new hubs.
I found the rear cv joint with the abs ring gear are upon were a smidge to long so shortened it so it wouldn't foul the suspension on locking the steering wheel, you might get lucky as I found one side was worse than the other.
Hi-spec hadn't perfected the electric handbrake when I was looking, but I'm sure they would had figured it out by now if you're buying from them.

Are you talking about the bottom ball joint? Mk1 golf if I remember correctly.

Good progress down at z cars this week BTW, they just have the steady bars to do and then it's all off to powdercoat, hoping to have the car back in a couple of weeks :)
