ive def spent hours on hours researching less than satisfactory but better than nothing DIY videos on YouTube. If you watch enough of them you tend to get a broad scope on the process and can approach the job fairly informed.The above is only to press them out of the knuckle. The other tool will help bust them apart initially to be able to use the press above. Doing ball joints on one of these trucks is pretty involved and may be a little bit much for a beginner unless they watch a lot of you tube videos on it.
So I’m getting a laundry list of parts in a cart on various sites to knock some of this out. One of the big questions is knowing the OD of the driveshafts and wheel span for the u-joint orders. Was looking at the moog ones. Is there a simple way to know this or should i just wrap a tape measure around it?
