Ball Joint Trouble - Ooooh Errr Mrs
Discussion
Hi All,
I'm just in the process of changing my front ball joints - upper and lower.
On to the final joint - front drivers upper - but would it budge ? Would it buggery.
Bolt is off underneath from up in the square U channel housing.
Cut the rubber gaiter off to get clean contact with the joint and top of the housing.
Smashing away with a splitter fork but it will not budge.
Tried smashing it side to side - no joy there either.
I've put plenty of penetrant fluid on which was disappering down the cone shaft.
Any bright ideas to avoid dismantling the break assembly and arms.
thanks
