Has anyone replaced just the bottom Ball Joint on their 206?
We have just replaced the complete A-arm.
and used a superb post by 'Ape' on replacing the A-arm
Both bushes on the old A-arm look fine but we were thinking of replacing the old ball joint and keeping the old A-arm as a spare
On our old Saxo the Ball Joint was easy to replace.....with a couple of sockets and a vice
Is it the same method on the 206?

don't think you can.
and that's why you should get a decent wishbone. The ball joint tends to be the first thing to split on the cheap stuff

I have seen them separately on ebay but you probably need a press or something to put them in.
