Thread: LCA Balljoint 6MPS

  1. Default LCA Balljoint 6MPS

    Hey guys, my Lower Control Arm Ball joint is split (left), which I expect is causing it to make the occasional metal on metal scraping noise as I'm driving along (usually just above 40kph).

    Would the normal Mazda 6 LCA fit my MPS?

    Thanks.

    the ball joint is split? do you mean the ball joint dust boot is split?

    Yeah I guess you could say that. The rubber bit has split around the balljoint. The rest of the car is fine (had it on a hoist) so I can't see what else would be causing the noise. It actually gets quite loud above 60-70kph. Bit embarrassing actually.

    Upon further inspection I might have found that the noise is probably my backing plate is catching the wheel. Tried to push it in a bit but still causing the sound. Will get it on a hoist later.
