Lemforder lower balljoint availible anywhere?

[Pex]

Trying to find Lemforder lower balljoints but they seems to be out of stock everywhere.
Are they as good as they say or are there replacements with the same quality?
Anyone know where to buy them?

Hi Peter...most replace the lower balljoint with the later sealed type.....info here http://forum.etypeuk.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5192

Sorry for not mentioning it but I'm referring to the newer sealed one, can't find it anywhere.

Hi Peter....l havent read of any problems with those supplied by the usual suppliers......where have you heard that Lemford are " better" ....Steve

Well, I have read in several threads in many forums, Jaguar and others that the Lemford ball joints is the best available. They cost twice as much than the others which sometimes reflects the quality.
Maybe I overthink this, just wanted the best for my cat

Here you go then..a quick google search found them... https://www.jagshop.co.uk/product/4129- ... cac9937lem

I just ordered them and some other parts from Jag shop and unfortunately they are out of stock despite what the web shop say.
The say "there has been an issue manufacturing them" so that's why I asked here...

Hi Peter...have you contacted SNG to ask who makes their sealed joints....the code is JLM....could stand for Lemford?

[Pex]

Same for SNG.
They don't have Lemforder in stock, possible to back order though.

The ones usually fitted now are standard XJ40 items, and if they will cope with the much higher loads of an XJ40 then they should amply cope with an E

CAC9937 or JLM11860, which is the XJ6 and onward ball joint is what you're looking for.

They seem to be available on E Bay; I searched "JLM11860 Lemforder".

so CAC9937 and JLM11860 is the same, good to know.
Still, ordering from Aus. cost to much, postage is more then the cost for the ball joints.
Thanks for the info, I will wait a little and see if they get in stock somewhere closer to Sweden.

Hi Peter...your not looking very hard.....on the ebay link that Andrew posted the items are located in the UK

[Pex]

Oh, see that now... was confused since all the currency was in aus$

Thanks for updating me on that, will order two immediately.
