i cant like just order em in for ya. supercheap doesnt work that way coz its not like for trade. i wish i could. id have to pay deposit to order em personally-but it looks pretty suss when im ordering like 6, when i got some a few months ago (also im runnning low on funds atm)
So sorry i cant order em in for ya's all, but theyre pretty easy to order urself.
ring 92401566 (SCA Balcatta), say the part no and u can pay full price over the phone (credit card) and we'll give u a ring soon as order comes in. (can be as quick as half a day).

Probably a good idea to make sure you can pull the joints out in your workshop, then anti-seize both ends and put it back in. This way when your on the trail and you break one, you know you can pull it out easily with only a tap of the hammer. They can get darn hard to get out sometimes. Some of mine have need the crowbar (as I know it, some call them "Fancing Bars") to lever the joint apart.

ball joints are right pricks to get out sometimes.^^^ i know. ive had one shear a splitpin and strip the thread once, going 90ks on dirt. grinds to a halt pretty quick.

had one snap, shear thru the taper on my white brumby, very mild paddock bashing. could get the bottom out after a few days soaking in crc. tapered part remains, despite BFH after BFH. crazy tight. no chance of fixing in your situation i think. (exept OXY;))
