Re: Ball joint

Thanks Grumpy, I didn’t think so!! I may have done this in the wrong order but I took the lower control arms off before trying to remove the ball joints and as of right now I can’t get them out I’m using a ball joint press with a 2 1/2 foot breaker bar and can’t get them to budge. I figure I’ll soak them overnight and PB blaster and give it a shot in the morning
I’m pretty sure I’m using this press correctly,The shaft of the ball joint hanging through the bottom is loose and not contacting the press at any point. I will post a photo, any advice would be appreciated
