Did my passenger side ball joints today. The lower one was makin quite a racket when I turned the steering wheel.

For anyone who has trouble with them, just go rent the c-clamp style press tool and the 4wd adapter kit at your local parts store. It took me about 2 minutes per ball joint to press them out with the right tools, very easy.

grinded off the rust and rust proofed the driver's side door inside and out.
painted it, and about to go out there and clear coat it.

this should slow it down a bit.
