GEN2 Ball joints?

[Alax7]

I am looking for ball joints for a gen 2. I been searching and a lot of people got the euromarque ebay ones. They say its fits 00-02. Do they fit all gen 2 also or no? Also, are only ball joints in the front? I've read peole only getting 2 of them or maybe they only change the front ones.

moog shows that 03 take bj's up till 11-18-02 production date anytime after that its complete arm and bj assembly...

and yes no rear bj's

I thought lower control arm could be removed and new B.J. pressed in ? If you find any info for the Gen2 please post. Good Luck.

You might be able to...but spicer, mevotech, and moog only list control arms...sorry

They sell 16mm ball joints(genII) on auction site. They state for 99-03. 03 is a genII so weird why they only list up to 03. I would call them and see whats the deal.

03 was a half year as i posted earlyer...its missleading you have to check production date to know for sure

The main differance between the two balljionts is the threaded part of the balljoint. If its 14mm it fits in the 14mm hole. If its 16mm it fits in the 16mm hole. Unless Ford changed the dia of the body of the joint. And you know Ford they like to mess with things. If anyone has a GENII old or new balljoint they have out, measure it and I will take measurements of my aftermarket GENI one. You can just call the seller too he has more info on these.

Am I wrong or only front lower ball joints r available to replace in gen 1s? I need to replace all 8 BJs but all I could find were front lower BJs.
