Ball joint tool and tie rod fork

[George G.]

Do any of you guys have a ball joint tool I can borrow? I finally got all my front end parts for my truck. Now I just gotta plan a weekend of beer, pizza and countless busted knuckles.

I always use the air hammer or similar force to seperate joints I plan on re-using. If you use a ball joint fork it will tear the grease boot and ruin the joint.

yeah, I prolly should've mentioned, I have new tie rod ends and ball joints to boot!:banana: This will be the last of the maintenance stuff. When I got the truck, I had to bring it back up to snuff...brakes, gear oil, dash bracket, front end+camber bushings, little stuff.

Once this is done....let the mods begin

By the way, do you do alignments Terry?

[L8 APEX]

No I don't, there seems to be a laser alignment shop around every corner.

I have what you need, dude. I've got a ball joint separator, a bushing remover/installer, and a 48oz. ball peen hammer (BFH). That should do it. Let me know if I can help.
