Re: Ball Joints Replacement

by bnegast@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 21, 2008 at 05:46 AM

I just finished putting on an entire new front suspension on my '91
Si.
I would suggest getting the entire upper control arm which has
the new bu****ngs and ball joint already in it.  Both Moog and NAPA
have grease fittings on the ball joints.  As for a bent lower arm, not
sure
how you would bend that large cast iron piece!  Don't forget your
inner
tie rods and rack steering bu****ng replacement as well as outer tie
rods.
You can just pound out the lower ball joint, but you will need a press
to
get the new joint back in place.  I used the HF press with success and
a
couple of sockets.  Remove the boot before installation or you risk
tearing it.
Hope this helps.
