Re: Lower Ball Joint Install?!

get a 3/4" drive short socket that just fits the bottom of your ball joint. then put a bottle jack under the socket. make sure bore in control arm is clean & lightly lubed. then you can tap the control arm around the ball joint opening & it will walk right in. works every time. don't heat control arm to expand the hole, it won't return to it's original size.
