Subframe mounted gear linkage ball diameter

[soundguy 13]

Anyone know what the diameter of the subframe mounted linkage ball is please?

[Gohn 68]

assuming you mean number 7 in the pic, the diametre given is 13mm

 

also, I've just put a caliper on the ball on my own subframe and it was 18mm

 

maybe someone else can explain the discrepency cause I can't

Thanks Gohn, yep, part 7 dia. is what I'm looking for.

 

I've seen references to 13mm with regard to that part but I thought that was for the nut under the ball, and for the locknut attaching it to the subframe.

 

Think I better take mine off to cross reference dia. with yours just to make sure.

 

Your microfiche scans are REALLY useful, thanks for uploading it.

Most ball studs are designed according to DIN 71803. If it's not what you need take a look at ball studs for gas struts, those are more varied.
