Hi All,
My 98 Griff had its first MOT failure, due to the dust covers staring to perish - can't complain!
I tried the search, as I'm sure that this will have been discussed many times previously - but couldn't find anything relevant.
Are these well known parts and readily available please?
Has anyone had a go at replacing them - and if so, could you recommend an appropriate ball joint splitter?
thanks in advance.

Buy silicone versions (measure the size) EVEN if you replaced the joint you would need to replace the new ones with silicone versions. A@

I'd replace the complete ball joints, reputable brand like Lemforder should have decent quality rubber bits.
