To help free moving parts run effectively, bearings are used. A ball joint is theoretically a bearing in a protected steel casing. The bearing stud itself is tapered and threaded offering it to be connected to the steering knuckles and control arms.

General road use on today’s roads can cause great impact on the lifespan of these parts. They are fitted with a protective encasing to prevent dirt from getting to the joint assembly.

Steering parts are a highly sensitive topic. If a vehicle veers off course, this may have serious consequences for the driver. Therefore, steering parts must be produced precisely and carefully - 100%. Febi Bilstein does not make any compromises in this respect.

Apart from the material quality, mainly the accuracy in fitting is of importance. Therefore, Febi Bilstein strictly complies with the specification of the manufacturers. They make sure that the steering parts exactly fit the corresponding vehicle type.

Febi Bilstein’s range includes more than 20,000 spare parts for all popular types of cars and commercial vehicles. One special feature is the “febi plus” product range which groups together over 1,400 parts from various product groups.

Why this exclusivity? Quite simply: parts that are designated as febi plus are supplied almost exclusively by OE manufacturers and are parts which repair shops do not immediately think of as being available in the independent aftermarket.

Please check the Notes section in the eBay compatibility table for fitment information relating to your specific vehicle. Failure to do so could result in the incorrect part being purchased.
