Do anyone know of TRW dealer in Oz?

I am trying to source some NLA TRW ball joints for one of my Holden's.

The OEM was TRW and so far I have got a stack of NOS ones from Germany but only RHS. I still need LHS joint.

I am having real safely issues with all aftermarket joints, which require modification to bring them back to OEM specs.

So if anyone knows of someone who deals with TRW OEM parts, please let me know.

cheers.

Anyone?

Still searching. Came across a TRW center/dealer but they said they only do truck parts.

Vlad,

I found this TRW catalog via a Repco site. Page 16 is the Holden parts list, maybe if you give Repco the part number they can order them for you.

Takes about a few seconds to download on my computer.

yeah, funny that, I just found that like 5 min ago.

will drop in to repco on the way home tonight.

although, the part numbers don't correspond to actual TRW part numbers. I suspect TWR sold as repco brand?

Wow thats was easy. they had them in stock. Got myself a LHS one, same as the NOS ones from Germany but a lot!! more pricey. only $78 each farrrk!

my NOS ones were 10 each. I bought 3 as spares.

Thanks for your help.

Now to prepare them for bigger bolts and skim them for flatness.
