With everything I have done to my cars and trucks - believe it or not...
I've never changed ball joints on anything. I am attempting to change
Christines ball joints, and I know what to do, but seem to lack to tools
to do it with. I picked up a ball joint press for the lowers... but the
uppers are threaded into the control arm.
I measured and the ball joint measures 2 1/18th across. There seem to
be no balljoint tools suited to this task that I can find. And a large
box wrench in that size would cost me over $150!! Anyone have any
suggestions? There has to be a socket or a spanner wrench out there for
this. I could use a pipe wrench? But thats not my first choice.
