Hey guys
Got panhard rod sorted, failed WOF on front left drag link ball joint. Apparently there is too much play in it now. Tried packing it with grease but no luck.
Had replacement drag link priced by my local Nissan supplier at $400!
So I need suggestions on weather i should buy a second hand one and hope for the best or try aftermarket. IF anyone has a good condition second hand one, flick me a private message.
Cheers

I saw BNT could do a heavy duty one for less than that. i think i was told just under $200 but can't remember.
