I should be fine now as long as i don't bugger anything up lol. Thanks for all the help guys, you made this much less of a nightmare. Just one thing tho. I didn't bother trying to getting off the part that's bolted to the diff. Still gonna need a socket thats short enough to fit under there cuz i can't be whacking my new part with hammer and chisel to get it on. Anybody knows what size is the nut on the ball joint
