That was crafty use of the tool for removal of the lower joint. A clear indicator of a fertile mind.

After spending hours heating and breaking a puller, I read numerous posts stating to just use a BFH. The top joint can be broken free with hitting horizontally on the knuckle. For the lower, get a strong chisel, grind the face flat. Turn the knuckle all the way to either side. Place the chisel as vertical as possible between the knuckle and axle carrier. Two blows with the hammer and the knuckle comes right off.

I'm in the middle of this job right now and this video has been extremely helpful, particularly on how to set up the press and the order of the procedure. Reassembly has been a nightmare, getting the steering knuckle to sit on the ball joints high enough. From your video it looks like you haven't got them on high enough on the ball joint pins too. I have just removed the bottom collet and it looks like it will go on much easier now at the top and them replacing the bottom collet hopefully will sort that out too. But thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting. I am about to do the same job x 2 on my car. Will for sure use more than 4,5 minutes. Looks like an angle grinder cutting a joint-bolt is an idea. Time will show.

Hi ! I have boot missing on mine too. I notice the steering wheel picks up bumps in road, and occasionally get oscillations in steering not too bad though. Changing the steering damper first. Did you change yours / see an improvement ?

cdchantler my issue was a Rover wheel that I had installed that had a different hub diameter. I installed the proper spacer and my issues went away. I did, however, replace all tie rods on the front. Usually, in my experience, when you are experiencing that oscillating wobble, it usually points to a ball joint. I had an old Chevy that did that; I would jerk the steering wheel and it would settle.

Holy Balljoints Datman ! wot a palava for a couple of BJ's ! , my dust covers are grotty and a advisory on my last ticket but the rubbers are ok .. so 30 quid for all four (both sides) but how long was it in real time Keanan ? I wonder if doing the driveshaft boot at the same time might be a good move ? Or do you know if just the dust covers are available anywhere ?? (new) Great quality footage !

Install the lower ball joint first exactly how he did it. The upper ball joint can be installed with a lump hammer and a block of wood.

A wrecking yard owner showed me the best way to remove ball-joints. First, remove the lock-pin in the castle-nut, back the nut off, and flip it upside down. Now, depending on the direction the ball-joint needs to go for disassembly, up, or down, use a bottle-jack to apply huge, yet constant pressure to the castle-nut. Then? Hit with the B.F.H. The shock from the hammer will cause the ball-joint to simply lose it's surface tension, and with practice, you will find yourself popping them off with no damage to the castle nut. Then, remove and replace the old ball joint, using the jack again, plus the weight of the vehicle itself to seat the new ball joint, tighten the castle nut, and replace the lock-pin.

That method is not applicable to this situation. It is not easy or practical to flip the axle or use a bottle jack on it. The process of putting tension on the joint and hitting it with a hammer is what I did and it worked.
