I have an old Toyota hilux for which some parts are discontinued and nowhere to be found.
On the pitman arms there are ball joints that are pressed in.
Basically they are two Studs with a ball on the end.
The balls go into an arm that links the two pitmans arms together.
Since i am a toolmaker and have some experience on lathes. I am thinking of making my own ball joints.
The cups that hold to ball onto the steering arm are still in good condition.
Question what material should i use for making them?
