That's the drop-arm ball joint. Different thing and harder to replace.

Hmm, mine is like this:
That's right - mine is just showing the detail / exploded diagram of the drop-arm ball joint. Yours shows it assembled.

OK three pictures of essentially the same bit... I think Trewys wins.

Yours and my pics are of a depender set-up. Roj's is of a Disco - slight difference.

You have a flat drop arm... from JA019110 they used these...
Right, then you need... RTC5869 and RTC5870

Nah trewy we were both led astray until he mentioned it was a flat drop arm not cranked, at that point they don't have the difficult pain in the ass drop arm ball joints, they just have another rod end style joint.
I am now trying to remember if he needs 3 of 1 and 1 of the other, because the drag link doesn't need to adjust the same as the tracking rod.

RTC5869 and RTC5870 for the tie rod OK 1 of each, RH and LH threads.
Then you need one RTC5869 for the end of the drag link (wheel side)
Drop arm side is a RTC5870.
Get new clamps (with nut and bolt).

Damn, I wish I had read this thread before attempting mine!! I got it all apart and snapped the damn bolt for the clamp and now have to wait for the delivery of L/H thread!! I should be out having fun, but instead I'm sulking!!
