Ball Joints- 1962 Buick Electra

[WhiteWallPaul]

Whats up guys- anyone know of a parts house that would stock ball joints for a 62 full size car in So California ? I tried most of the basics-- even Napa distribution has to order them and they want too much money. In any case, my car is stranded in front of my house until I can locate some

thanks

if they are anything like a 70 wildcat ....(noone stocked them)
the uppers for mine were $80.00 apiece from napa
and napa got them from rareparts (rareparts.com)

Thanks Scott-

Theres a kit on ebay:

It gives this as a universal kit for full size cars 62-64.

Moog says 62 to 63 is a completely different part and they have the 63 but not the 62.

You guys have any idea if this part will cross 62-64 or is it a completely different?

Ya they sure do-- too bad theyre all the way on the right coast-- hoping to find someone in CA but I guess I cant be too picky at this point...
