Please help with ball joint replacement!
So I'm replacing the ball joints on my saxo. Got a new suspension arm placed and the mechanics took the old ball joint off. Was hoping i could do the rest myself so its cheaper. How do i go about doing this? Ill attach photos of the state of it lol
Want to get the car rolling so i can get it on a flat bed! |
Well they're pressed in so ideally you need a press.
If you've got a bench vice you could maybe use 2 sockets (one deep one and one to push the ball joint in) Most people these days just replace the whole arm. No other way to do it. |
Generally find the wishbone will be pretty corroded by the time bottom ball joints require changing and you need to weigh up whether to just get a full arm which is probably your best bet with no press. Only a few more nuts and bolts to remove.
