Drawing on its extensive market intelligence from across Europe, component supplier SWAG has identified a reoccurring problem on the front axle of the Peugeot 508 and 407 and Citroën C6 and C5 III.
The complicated design of this assembly means it is susceptible to premature wear, especially in terms of ball joints and knuckle bearings.
It is generally accepted that the whole knuckle assembly has to be replaced when a faulty knuckle bearing is identified, as individual bearings are not available from the manufacturer. To overcome this issue, SWAG now offers a complete strut assembly repair kit, as well as all individual components available separately. The kit contains all the parts required for a repair including; two ball joints and knuckle bearings, along with all the necessary nuts and bolts, allowing for a professional high quality repair, that saves the workshop time and the customer money.
The strut assembly repair kit part number is SWAG no. 62 94 4480. The kit fits Peugeot 508, 407 and Citroën C6, C5 III models and is now available from SWAG stockists.
