P38A Ball joint press

tarphenry · Mar 20, 2020

Hi, just been under front of new "different" car and I notice 1 side of car ball joints are new, other side old .Doesn`t make sense to me. Does anyone know the no for the press set please, then I can do the other side to match. Thanks

That is a good kit, I've one myself.
Set it up,
Pile on some pressure,
Plenty of release oil and a bit of heat and your favorite hammer.... And pop goes the weasels!

Don't forget to put the new ball joints in the freezer overnight or longer.

You should put a punch mark near the joint to show it’s been changed.
3 changes think hub takes

I don't like people much so this virus is excellent as far as I am concerned. I've always washed my hands so no problems there.
