Subject:upper ball joint replacement
From:Alistair Bell
Date:Wed, 2 Dec 2009 22:06:48 -0800

did one upper ball joint today. I was all set to have a nice time,
and take pictures to document what I thought would be an easy job.
Turned out to be a bear, tapered joint would not pop out they way "it
should".

"details" here:  http://shufti.wordpress.com/

I also took a quick picture of my modified Jackall, high lift style
jack. I welded on a it of the stock jack to some box section steel
and that is bolted on the Jackall's lift part.
