Hello Everyone, After replacing my water pump and fan clutch I went to get an alignment due to some pretty bad wear on the inside of the tire. they said the ball joints where shoot. I had shook um around a bit before but the used a pry bar and i could see the movement. I started removing everything to get the job done but I am stuck on removing the lower ball joint from the LCA itself. I have a press with the correct adapters but It ended up bending the tabs before poping out the joint. The snap ring has been removed and this is what I have tried.
Using a torch with pb blaster and banging with a hammer.
using ball joint press with proper adapters and pb blaster.
- using hammer to try and drive the pressure bar while torquing down
I've tried for countless hours with no luck. These are after market moog ball joints. Any ideas that could help would be greatly appreciated
