Lovely, exactly what I wanted to do, take apart half the entire front suspension just to fix a new part. I'll buy a tap and die set next weekend and work on it. Is there an "easy" way to unseat the LCA and UCA ball joints from the spindle without using a pickle fork? And for the record, I did not hammer or file these ball joints.




If the stud is spinning in the LCA, the ball joint isn't set. Back off the torsion bar completely, jack the LCA up and the ball joint should just drop out. Then you can remove the lower ball joint, stick it in your vise, and work on it without fighting anything.
