About this product
Sourced from HART, this ball joint (444 729) combines precision engineering with durable materials to meet the demands of everyday driving and extended service intervals. This part supersedes original equipment references: RBK 500040, RBK 500180. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function. HART is a recognised supplier of automotive replacement components to independent workshops and dealer networks across Europe. All parts are sourced from authorised distribution channels and carry full manufacturer traceability — you receive exactly the same component supplied to professional garages and dealer workshops. If fitment or specifications do not match your vehicle, our technical team can help identify the correct alternative — use the vehicle selector or contact us with your VIN for a guaranteed-fit recommendation. Replacing worn components on schedule preserves your vehicle's safety, reliability, and resale value — and aftermarket parts from established brands deliver OEM-equivalent performance at a fraction of the dealer price.
