Brought home the ball joint tool, from my storage locker, to get a picture of it. No C-4034 tool. Have other adapters for the press, but i guess i never had a C-4034, because it never came with the press, when i bought it, way back in the old days. Do you have the C-4212 press?

The maker of Miller Tools is also the maker of OTC Tools.
Go to their website, OTCTools.com, they have several professional series ball joint kits, see what they have. Their tech support might be able to help.

Did that. No help unless I can find an engineer there who will in his spare time sift through a million pcs. of old paperwork to find the specs on what it is. They're looking at the same pic you and I are.

I've had a very hard (impossible still) time finding 2 tools 1) Miller tool C-4134 - Steering column centering tool 2) Matco DF-3110 - wheel lip moulding screw removal tool (or equivalent snap on) Both were discontinued decades ago.... I've search for years... begged and pleaded and even prayed... Dear mopar lord... Please hear my cries and bring me my coveted tools... (and while you're at it grant me an NOS driver side quarter panel for a 70 Dodge Coronet) Amen!

How did you ever get a 4spd in your Chrysler? I've never seen ball joint adapter tool C-4034.... But I could have those balljoints changed without the tool pretty quickly.... I have all sorts of press adapters, I've got a BFH & I've got a torch...
I was wondering the same thing
The part he wants is for putting the seal in place, that is the easy part of the job. I can't even imagine a tech using the press to put the seal on.
