<VV> Lower Ball Joint info

[Daniel Monasterio]

Hi Ron,
   Haven`t used the ZM 22 but the K 677s since the 70s (no GMs available here). They worked without any troubble by many years and miles. Last time I installed new ones (on my 67 cpe.) was some 10 years ago (maybe 60,000 miles) and they are still fine. Moog's catalog states ZM 22 & K 677 as high performance ones. Moog's standard ones are K 679 (threaded) and K 6039 (press fit). Think Moog is a very good brand on suspension parts.

> Having had a recent catastrophic lower ball joint failure, I searched out what I had on my shelves and found two pair of Moog joints.  One is an odd- ball joint id'd as ZM 22 and is a REMCO-MATIC which has an automatic adjusting feature.  Does it work OK, does anyone know?  The other pair are K  677's and are screw in adjustable types.  Do adjustables really expand the lower arm holes?  Does anyone have any other info on the pros and cons of these?
