I'm geussing there should be a chrome coating on this ball joint.



Was going to put new felt and seal but looking at this mess they probably wont last long.
Going to be rubbing it back smooth.
Does anyone know if there is a coating that can be applied while on the vehicle, or would i have to pull the axle out and have it re chromed?

Once the hub is off, the "ball" can be wire brushed & painted, It's a bit of work but it's worth doing.

Thanx steknig, was thinking of putting some por15 on it. Guess it has to be a fairly hard wearing paint.
Is this a common problem on zuks ?

Any 4by mate, the felt & rubber seal is there to keep water & shit out, once it's gone, that happen's.
