I also found few fitting issue on the front suspension, somebody needs to make that ball outta Aluminium IMO. until then I filed them down then polished them. moving well now.

Few tips I can share while I'm doing that is, I pulled out my old trick to popped the balls in and out easily without damage them. as shown above

Also, even though it shared same part # there is 2 different part as shown bottom of the pic

And that manual!!

Question: how do you achieve 3.8mm RH in the rear? mine seating at 4.2 with -1mm Rear ball bearing housing. maybe because of the brand new tire?

Happy Motoring!

In these type of designs I just use a rat-tail( circular) file and slightly open each hole on the a-arms until the ball and cup can literally just slide in. That frees the ball up. Then I just glue the cup to the arms and put the oring on just for added security although not necessary.

When you need to change them out just use a little debonder on them to remove the ca.
