Alright so I finally got all the pieces of the puzzle together(I have an extra set of used control arms and brand new outer bushings) but I am just trying to figure out how to actually remove the old ball joints and insert the new ones
I understand that to remove and install the ball joints you just have to simply press them with at least a 20 ton press.
it all sounded so simple when I was collecting the parts about a year ago but my front end clunk has just gotten louder and I cant procrastinate this any longer
Where would I go to press out the ball joints?
and would any of these ideas work
will just any garage be able to do this if I just hand them the control arms and new bushing?
should I find a machine shop?
should I just buy a 20 ton press from harbor and freight for 200$ and figure it out the hard way?
Can I just do it with a big ass hammer?
Can I just do it with a big ass hammer and a drill?
:thankyou:
