Ball Joints
« on: December 12, 2009, 08:02:56 pm »
I'm changing the ball joints in my dad's durango and holy crap these things are kicking my ass.  I got one side done and started on the other, but man I feel wiped out.  Definitely get yourself a good press if you decide to do these :death:

yup they are, mine were done by the dealer under recall, saved us the hassle of doing it, but i have heard of people knocking their trucks off the jackstands trying to change them w/o a press . . .
