    Car failed the nct on two front ball joints and rear shock mount being worn. Can do the work myself but do I need to get the tracking done after?

    Also, cant seem to get a shock mount for my qashqai. Looks like two new shocks. Anyone know if these mounts are available?

    Yes, you will need to have the car tracked after replacing the ball joints.

    Don't know about the shock mount but I'd be surprised if they weren't available. Have you asked Nissan?

    Replacing ball joints have no impact on tracking I would have thought.

    Yep, tried Nissan but apparently the rear shocks are such an issue on the qq they just advise replacing the entire shock and don't do shock mount replacement parts
