how it fixes to the arm

also called attachment · mounting type

HOW THE JOINT'S HOUSING IS HELD IN THE SUSPENSION ARM OR KNUCKLE - pressed into a bore, or bolted through a flange. MOOG publishes it as `Mounting Type` and prints two values across two of its own ball joints: `Press-In` on the K80026 and `Bolted` on the FD-BJ-7296, the second with `Number of mounting bores: 3`. Dorman publishes the press-fit construction as a dimension, `Housing Press Fit Diameter: 42 mm`. IT IS A FACT ABOUT THE PART'S OWN HOUSING AND NOT ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE BOX, which is the line b156 drew when it minted the riveted parking-brake lever and refused the adjuster strut. It is also NOT the live `mounting` (freestanding, hanging, wall-mounted, railing-mounted, pedestal), which is how a planter is supported [A11, L10]. Optional: a stabiliser link bolts through its own studs and answers nothing here. Concern measurement.
