looking for the part number for the ball joint.
MR162803 is the arm, but I can't see the ball joint as a separate thing. they look replaceable, I have a press...

any ideas? I'm hoping to get it on the road tomorrow to help my brother move house.

No worries mate, just sourced some inner and outer tie rods from them, ridiculously cheap, hope they last. $26 for a pair of outers and $52 for inners, only took five days, not bad considering I'm 700ks from Adelaide. Btw I though I read recently that the ball joints are threaded, but on second thoughts it may have been the rear suspension arms that adjust toe.
