Don't forget the $40 sockets, oh and the $250 tank big enough to actually run it at any decent torque.

Different anon, Anyone have any suggestions for getting a ball joint out of the spindle? I'm doing the whole control arm and balljoint together and have everything out except for the joint.

I have a pickle fork but no matter how much I seem to hammer it I can't get it any further. I guess I could get a press but I'll need to take the axle out to get it in place.

Any other suggestions?

Pay a professional. This type of work is not fun.

Why are you trying to take the bj out if you are replacing the whole control arm?

>>15865196
Is this a real question? I have a bad ball joint.

What kind of 95 are you working on fuckface?

It's a win win

That's why I'm doing the control arm, it cam with a new balljoint already in place (pressed in) it's riveted in.

And I can't get the old one out of the spindle for shit. It's just stuck in there, moves maybe 1/5th of an inch up and down but that's it.

My pickle fork didn't help for shit. And I think if I wanted to use a press tool I'd have to take the CV axle out to do it.

Its a 3000gt faggot ass

Im probably just gonna use a pipe to get it off

Buy a good electric impact and use pb blaster. Or just button it back up and take it to a professional. Stop being a poorfag.

>an electric impact
Impact wrench is worthless for what I'm doing, all the bolts are off. The fucking balljoint is stuck in the spindle.

Your dumb ass clearly has no clue what I'm talking about.

Heat or air hammer or both.

>>15865426
Oh, hit that shit with a hammer. The shock will break it loose. Put the nut back on so it doesn't flop everywhere.

>>15865452
That's what I've been doing but it doesn't seem to be enough. I might just get a second pickle fork for the extra gap.

I only know CV axles, but I'll tell you what mine took. I used an impact wrench for the axle nut, but you can just use a breaker bar. It will probably be a pin in the ass though. Most likely 30mm socket for that. Bolts on mine were fucking tough but they came off, if it's stripped idk what to tell you. A lot of the bolts that need to get taken off on the wheel hub and caliper and shit aren't in ideal locations for drilling out or grinding. Just soak the motherfucker in wd40 or breakfree or something for a week before messing with it. After that the axle just pops out and the new one pops in. Hardest thing is getting the nuts and bolts off.
