The Upper VW Ball Joint fits the left or right side of 1973 through 1974 Things. The ball joints press into the left or right upper trailing arm and connects the trailing arm to the spindle. The ball joint passes through the camber adjustment cam which holds the ball joint to the spindle. The cam is not included with the ball joint so make sure to save the cam from your old ball joint, yes it does come off! The ball joints are made in Germany, are pre-greased and include the ball joint boot held in place with the upper and lower circlip. The ball joints are sold individually, each Thing uses 2.
When removing the old upper ball joint, be sure to save the eccentric camber adjustment cam and the washer. Both are needed and re-used when bolting the trailing arm to the spindle. Suspension components (like most things nowadays) are made around the world, by various manufacturers. A German suspension component comes from a German manufacturing company that may have numerous factories around the globe. Regardless of where the part is made, if it is labeled as a German part, it comes from a German company that has manufactured that component at a facility that is owned by them, and it is made to their high standards of quality and fitment.
