 Subject: O2 down, ball joints are next
IP: Logged
Message:
I got my very stuborn oxygen sensor out with a very handy ratchet and am gonna tackle my ball joints next. I know there have been a ton of posts on this but I cant find the info I am looking for. I need to know what tools I will need. I realize besides a jack and stands, breaker bar for the wheel, new ball joints, grinder, but what other tools does this job require?

I don't use a pickle fork I usualy just give the kuckle a bang with a BFH and the tie rod or ball joint will pop out. (the tapered end wit the nut on it)
