looked at the other thread.. I KNOW he didn't just take all that stuff off just to do ball joints..did he? take a nut off, pop it out of control arm, press ball joint out, press new one in, put snap ring on, bolt it back to control arm.... this took me all of 20 minutes (each side) to do...and this includes doin the upper ball joints and the tie rod ends...

 

3rd Gen Ram FAQS, first page newb. its an entire tutorial for exactly what you are asking for.

 

thanks DirtyJohn
Looked at your tutorial and I'm doing the bottom as well. The top looks a bit easier, that's why I'm beating the bushes for some pics of bottom replacement. Thanks for everyones help. I know tutorials and things take time... what would we do without the internet.
later
