Renault Twizy Front Lower Ball Joint – Left or Right
This ball joint fits the lower front suspension of the Renault Twizy, on the left or the right. It connects the lower control arm to the wheel hub, so the wheel can steer and move up and down smoothly. It has an 18 mm cone and is sold individually.
A ball joint is a ball and socket sealed inside a rubber boot. Over time the joint wears and gains play, and a split boot lets water and grit in, which speeds up the wear. Signs of a worn ball joint include knocks from the front over bumps, vague or wandering steering and uneven wear on the front tyres. A badly worn joint can affect the way the vehicle steers and brakes, so have it checked as soon as you notice any of these signs. Many owners replace both sides together.
