I put the new ball joint in the freezer overnight ( the metal casing of the ball joint contracts slightly allowing it to go inside the housing more easily). Don’t forget to oil the threaded shaft to avoid damage. Also consider tapping bottom of c clamp with a large mallet whilst tightening on threaded shaft. Works for me every time !

When you are pressing the ball joint in, you have the C Clamp upside down. The black part is doing the pressing, so it should be coming up from the floor, not down from the top. That's why it's fighting so much, and you had to make the piece. Only do it the way you did it if there is no other option due to clearance. Look at some other videos, and you will see the mistake you made in your setup. It worked, but it made it way harder than it had to be.

Jeremiah, thanks for this video and demonstration on how to use the pieces in the kit. I will suggest that the next time you have trouble loosening or tightening something with a breaker bar, consider sliding a length of pipe over the breaker bar handle to get a longer “reach”. The extra length / leverage will make the work much easier. I sometimes use the handle from my floor jack.

Jeremiah, Thanks for the video. I was hurting for you as you tightened it up. Get a stronger impact wrench! The fit is pretty much an interference fit and the aluminum was probibly sheering (galling) in tenth of thousandths at every imperfection as you were pressing the steel ball joint up. Hence the struggle. Also, any slight cocking of the angle between the two causes almost impossible pressures. hence the suggestions of tapping the control arm with a hammer. I hope you use some safety glasses. Those breaker bars and sockets can snap. Helpful video!

I'm giving you a like, subscribe, and comment because this video is very "real" as far as putting in a ball joint. I get pissed watching the videos where they go "zip zip" with the impact wrench and the ball joint just comes out and goes back in effortlessly within a few seconds. I've spent many hours over 3 days trying to change mine out on my Charger and it doesn't really have a good way to do it on the vehicle and obviously off the vehicle you can't do it with a breaker bar unless you have a heavy duty rig to hold the knuckle/control arm that you are pressing in or out of. Like you, I've cranked on mine so hard I'm afraid I'm going to break something (possibly even me).

Dude, like you said; you're not a mechanic. I'm not either. But I do have a comment that would make your job either. Use the cup on the bottom to put the ball joint back in. But instead of using this tool, use a flood jack instead. The weight of the car will cause the ball joint back in. You might get lucky and puts the ball joint all the way back in. I didn't get so lucky, I had to use that special tool for just the finish touch to put the final little ring thing. Using the floor jack and the weight of the car is better that fighting with this thing. My idea anyway. Love your video. Thank you for sharing. have a great day.

You use grease around the ball joint and in the sleeve where it gets pressed Starting the ball joint straight is key so you must go extremely slow when you start. You must have a long 1/2 inch break bar to turn the press and have the right cups/plates to press the ball joint in or out. That " C " is only like 6 inches So you best bet is touch nothing, measure overall lenght with the old ball joint in place then go to the auto parts store to rent with a full size drawing and lay out the parts in the kit to make sure you can cover the ball joint travel in or out. 1 other thing, NEVER EVER put your legs under the car, NEVER! Use jack stands as well as support from floor jack. Pressing takes considerable torque. Hence a long 1/2 inch .breaker bar Slide a pipe over it for an extension, the longer the lever the greater your mechanical advantage; the easier it is to turn. AGAIN, NEVER EVER PUT YOUR LEGS UNDERNEATH THE CAR, NEVER! Have fun, nick.
