re-assembling the pot joints today, and i'm concerned about wear on one of them. With the balls fully loaded into the cage, there is a fair bit of play and the balls just fall out, where as the the other pot joint is hardly any play and the balls dont fall out.

where can i get new balls and cages from? Also, i seem to remember there being two or more sizes of the inside diametre of the pot joints because a pair i had from a car jumble didnt fit over the ball/cage assy.

Buy a complete new or reconditioned item as its not the balls that wear but the races and cage them selves. Dont know any where that sell the seperate parts to these anyway. they are cheep enough TBH
