Looking for cheaper source for this steering ball joint for a go-cart

Jun 26, 2007 2 Replies

Greetings,



Got this go-cart 2nd hand. One of the ball joints in the steering was reported to have been separated previously and now has excessive play (1/4" or so).



Manufacturer quoted me $100 (yikes!) -

Hoping someone else might know of a place where I could get this for a lot less. Made in china, so I'm betting it's metric threads.



Here is a link to a pic of the ball joint.

McMaster-Carr Grainger supply mayyyybe smallparts.com

Google "ball joint" etc...

A machinery supply house might be a good bet.
