This is almost unbelieveble! Remachined Joints??? That really is stupidity. I have never heard of this before. I think I would'nt want to be even near a shop which would recomend this! Like said before: The hardning proces (of both parts!), new oversized balls, AND proper PRE-loaded mounting will make this proces almost impossible to do
correctly by any shop which is not specialized in stuff like this! (And then I won't even have thought about the theoretical knowledge of the machining tollerances, surface-roughness, and the needed mounting tollerances between the parts) Actualy I think only manufactures of these joints really have the knowledge and machinery to do this...
