i am in desprate need of help figuring out how to change a upper ball joint on a 97 Dodge Stratus. We got the broken one out, but can not figure out how to use the ball joint press? help i am just the mom of 4 trying to save some money by doing it myself.

 

it's really hard to explain how to use a ball joint press, try a google search. someone has to have picture directions.

 

If you have the guts to do that, you can work on my vehicle anytime......

well just to let everyone know the new ball joint is in my Stratus sorry i didnt let anyone know sooner, but i was so excited when i got it i drove it all weekend. And what is wrong with a girl doing it herself? lol i will try anything once and if i like it, i'll do it again lol

 

I have several girl "friends" that are top mechanics. Chrysler has a regional service trainer that is female which I've been in her classes several times.
