    Does anyone use Prekom ball joints, I've not found any recent threads on them. They use a different non 2 pack adhesive which they say they have used for years with zero issues.
    I'd love to hear from anyone who has actually used them, good or bad as an alternative to HE and or Ferrari.
    Cheers!

    Currently have them on my 612 OTO along with their Flanblocs. Initial impressions are very positive but time will be the ultimate judge.

    Great thanks. I found a UK dealer today who has been selling them for a long time and sold hundreds, He mentioned they got 6000 miles more than another brand on a side by side which is anecdotal but i think i'll give them a whirl and see for myself.

    My experience is the complete opposite. I ran a test alongside Hill joints when Prekom first came along: F430. Prekom joints on one side, Hill on the other (inc tie rod ends at the front and complete tie rods at the rear). The car was driven for 6,000 km and then inspected. The Hill joints showed a little wear as we've become to expect. However the Prekon joints were gone - the liner was squished out on the lower BJs and all other joints had at least double the play of the Hill ones.

    We refuse to fit them, even if a client turns up with them.

    They are like those Chinese hub bushes for 458, F12, Cali, etc - complete and utter junk. The small cost saving just isn't worth the lower lifespan.
