Hello All, my truck has been making a terrible squeak and squeal whenever I turn while driving, so I bought a ball joint kit (upper arms, lower ball joints, etc) So, I feel somewhat confident about the upper portion, but as for the lowers, I don't think I own a press kit...so any tips tricks on doing without woudl be appreciated.
Also, just a thought, but I recall that when I was building motorbike motors, I used to stick the bearings in the freezer overnight, then heat the case with a torch and just drop the bearings in without any fuss, wondering if the same idea can be used for the replacement lower balls joints...anyone done this?
