Subject:Lower ball joint tricks?
From:Chris S
Date:Tue, 2 Feb 2010 18:34:11 -0500

I have complete set of '89 uprights with complete brake assemblies
which I wish to transplant to my '84. The trick is that I need to R&R
the lower balljoints. The ball joint tools from FLAPS are basically
useless and I can't press them out.  What sort of magic do I need to
perform short of taking them to a machine shop?   I did the V-dub
finger signs and a few chants in German to no avail.
