Anyone know the best way to get the control arm ball joint bolt out of the strut assembly? A hammer has proven useless so far.

hammers run the risk of destroying the treads. do not use a bigger hammer!
the impact mushrooms the treads and will cause issues.

what chitty said. best $10 i spent. took out control arms in 2 mins.

Uuggghhh... Story of my life right now; I'd say I'd be pissed, but every day I don't sell it is another day I don't have to drive my dreaded overheating Eclipse..

Use a bigger hammer

Haha yeah forreal. But I honestly don't mind keeping the car so it doesnt bug me as much. Got a lot of interested people, but maybe only one serious buyer that doesnt have the permission from his wife lol.

Once the smog certificate expires, I'm def not selling unless the buyer deals with smog. I dont want to go through that headache again!

usama you should just trade meeee.

Haha i'd probably kick myself in the ass if I had to deal with seeing my car on a daily basis at the napa valley parking lot loll

My smog cert already expired.. I'm including the papers so people don't have a chance to talk crap and lowball me. Already had a guy come out an drop his price by $1000 just cause I didn't have the smog cert. I did all the maintanence after I passed smog, so there's no way this thing is gonna fail next time; it's even got receipts for a new cat and everything from the PO.

Craigslist buyers are seriously nit-picky. They want an absolutely spotless car for $1000... They can go kick rocks and pound sand for all I care
