The ball from my hip replacment..
« on: March 02, 2024, 06:32:18 PM »
They had to replace the ball from my artificial hip joint after it became displaced twice. You can see the scratches from when this happened.



So I mounted it on a new shift lever for my truck. I kept the original shift lever in case I got rid of the truck, I could get my hip back.




CHEERS! goaly

Yes, it is much more stable.

Since the old ball always "shifted", you put it to good use.
