Changing Ball Joints

[Justin M]

I hate seeing these trucks like this!

sweet. did you use a press?

Were they hard to remove? I was thinking about doing mine and the rest of the front end components.

[95dieselsmoke]

yes, they are a pain without a press

Getting the spindles off was simple...but removing the ball joints was impossible...i has to take mine to the local NTB because that was the only place open on Sunday...and i still did not get them back yet

2wd ball joints are a lot less work to do than a 4wd.

It is not that bad of a job if you have the tools and are prepared.

Hope you get your truck back together soon.

What he said. I did my first set of ball joints in about 8 hours lol. My last set was under 2 hours... you'll get it stick with it!
