up **** creek here biggrin.gif

anyway, failed its car test on emissions(i've sourced a new cat already) and the ball joint and 2 CV boots. Seeing as how i have another cat and CV boots are easy i just needed the ball joint so I rang the motor factors up to get a ball joint sent down for an st202 jap celica and they sent down something that looks a little like this..

what i want though has a larger base plate and 2 of those ^ yokes on it. It is still a balljoint i'm after isnt it? Or am i asking for the wrong thing altogether?
