Front upper ball joint nut

Technical Area Steering & Suspension

Hi,

Firstly, a big thanks for the replacement of shocks/springs ‘HOWTO’ in the downloads section - extremely useful.

However, I do have a problem: one of the castellated nuts (goes on to front upper wishbone ball joint) is knackered and I need a new one ASAP.

Is a Mazda dealer the only source of these things?

Cheers.

I’m sure a decent hardware shop (Mackay’s in Cambridge for example) could match one up for you, but one thing I will say is if you order it though Mazda it’ll be right first time. Order before 4:00pm & they’ll have it for you next day, assuming there is stock in UK.

Part number is: 99924-1201

Cheers for the part number!  I’ll give Mazda a call tomorrow.

 

Is the Merlot car still alive?

It is but needs to get out more!
