Product Details

This page covers the Whiteline Front Lower Outer Camber Adjustable Roll Center Correcting Performance Ball Joint Kit for the 2005-2019 Volkswagen Passat. Part number KCA472. Position: front. The kit contains 2 ball joints. Chassis code: B6/B7/B8.

The lower ball joint is the pivot between the control arm and the steering knuckle, and the wheel moves up and down and turns on it. When it wears, it develops play that shows up as clunks, wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. A new joint takes up that slack. The camber adjustability in the name means the joint lets an alignment shop move the camber setting, which a standard joint cannot. The roll center correcting design is aimed at lowered cars, where the stock geometry no longer sits in range.

Expect a moderate job of about 2 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Whiteline's note for this fit: Reduces roll/bump steer: essential for lowered cars. Brake rotor clearance is reduced: attention required when fitting with brake upgrades. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, and Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link for the Passat.
