806 osf stub axle
finally bit the bullet and found out the `clunking` (well took it to a better garage than before)
off side front stub axle is worn - the ball joint is moving inside and thats the clunking
so - replace or can the ball joint be sleeved to fit?
edit:
yes its a pug 806

Re: 806 osf stub axle
Is this the bottom balljoint that the suspension arm is connected to? If its the same as most other Peugeot/Citroens they usually screw into the stub axle assy but they are very tight, you really need a special tool to remove them.

Re: 806 osf stub axle
maybe its a common fault on these, as the Synergie we bought for my daughter,
we pit it in for a MOT Thursday and one thing it failed on was the N/S lower swivel pinch bolt not pinched up tight enough (so we thought )
i tried tightening it on Friday to find the only wat to tighten it more than it was was a lot more leverage than usual ,
the was and still is a gap at the pinch clamp joint,
but my thoughts are get another hub/carrier,
the swivels on these are factory fitted to the arm not like the XANT's

Re: 806 osf stub axle
aye i found out quite quickly that a balljoint replacement needed a whole arm

Re: 806 osf stub axle
i did enquire with GSF they say around £45 quid for a complete arm, well for the synergie at least

Re: 806 osf stub axle
As above (have replied to your PM) , the balljoint is part of the arm, unlike Xantia's / 405's / 406's / 307's* where its screwed into the hub.
* A massive deep socket needed for 307's I do have one although it took a lot of hunting to get one that was really deep enough to do it.
Back on topic, as above really if a new arm does not cure (don't try to press the joint into it, assuming you can obtain one) then it will probably want a hub assembly. I don't think this is that common though, but its not unknown.
Cannot attach a pic, photoplop is having a concern it seems.

Re: 806 osf stub axle
That's the hub itself. At least the suspension strut comes off it so its a replacement hub (sometimes called carrier) needed in that case.
As soon as photobucket decides to work...

Re: 806 osf stub axle
talking of pic:
that bit that the ball point is screwed into
so - if its a hub *complete* is it model specific or does the same part fit other models?

Re: 806 osf stub axle
I think its 806 specific although Expert will be the same as well as some Citroen models.
Slight chance its the same as a 306 but I doubt that.
