Like I posted before in another thread.

Make sure your ball joint press will work to get them out... AND back in.
Most kits do not work for the back in part.

Make sure your new lowers come with a new cotter pin. Old one might get destroyed during removal.

 

Came with everything needed. And yeah $122 to rent a press...

 

Just to let everyone know I bought a ball joint press at harbor fright for $70.00 and it worked for me.

 

I just went and rented it. I seen that at harbor freight too. I don't do this every day so I didn't need to purchase one.

 

You might not need one but it is still $50.00 cheaper than renting! You are driving a dakota, you will need it again. You also can replace U-joints with it.

 

I bet these moogs will last ALOT longer than the stocks lol.

 

Went all out and got the knuckle off, upper a arm and the strut semi unbolted. Was fighting with my air compressor. Not enough pressure to press out a ball joint lol. Borrowing a breaker bar tomorrow.
