idk might not be as easy as putting a new ball joint in and calling it a day. looks like the brake line got broke from the wheel pulling it tie rod is a lil bent might have fucked up the steering rack. Ball joint has to be pressed into the control arm so thats gotta come out then an alignment after it all. :x

Way to go Ford for not putting some cheap little zerk fittings so you can grease the damn things!

DemonWithin99 09-30-2010 04:33 PM

ball joints are sold as is one part already pressed. cheap part. tie rod is also easy if the rack's not damaged. and brake lines just messy. all easy

Honestly that had to be really loose for a long time to seperate, he must have noticed some clunking or loose feeling.

No the ball joint has to be pressed into the lower control arm.
