Lower ball joint help
I'm trying to find out what lower this may be and what balljoint I need. It's a press in style. I have tried qa1 pn 109 and it was a touch too big and a ball joint for a 81 Monte Carlo is way to big. I use 5" springs with no problem. Is it a nova?

That might be a Lightning Nova style lower. The ball joint they use will not press in, but fit loosely and have 3 tack welds on the bottom to hold it in. Call Donnie or Vickie at 606-878-RACE or lchassis@aol.com or HEAVY DUTY on 4m and they'll tell you what it is.

The ball joints that were in it were exactly how you described. Thank you

It looks like a pierce lower, but someone might have changed the balljoint. Lightning (that I am aware of) never used a heim on the chassis mount. Used a plastic bushing and sleave.

I emailed lightning and they believe its a pierce or allstar lower. Going to try the 73-81 truck ball joint they recommended. Thanks.

Pretty positive it's pierce, might call n get the insert that adapts it to a screw in and have more variety in screw in ball joints
-
Call pierce to get the inset or does someone else carry it? Thanks

Pierce, b sure to tack them in as well
