Does anyone know what the bottom ball joint is from? It isn't Sierra, as they don't have detachable units...

The parts list says it's "QSJ765s or AP Lockheed TC76 both of which are for Fiat's models 124/125/132"

Also a bit misleading but this (FAQ) post discusses the TOP ball joint but near the bottom of page 2 includes details of the bottom ball joints including some diagrams of bolt hole centres which need to be checked out

The Lada is an old fiat design isn't it?

yes, it's a fiat 124 (the parts list however said something about lada ones not fitting for some reason though, something important about the shape of the part for a TVR that isn't important on a lada)

Thanks for all your help chaps - picked the parts up from the local motor factors this morning (bought 2 of each so I can do the other side if required) - all fitted like a glove this afternoon - slowly getting there.

The good news is that I now have steering again!!
