This guy is smart, anytime you are going to work on something thats been there a long time spray the hell out of it with some kind of penetrating oil,it will make your job real smooth.
Man I love that u put all the clips back idk if it’s just me but I’m starting to see mechanics get a lazier than b4 sum ppl would just throw it on and not indent or not bend a cotter pin in the right direction
I did one when I was 18 in the sand on delta 98 , I used the weight of the car to press it . Amazing what you can do when stranded and put mind to it , funny thing is 30 years later going through tools and we had all different size ball joint forks 🍴
You know you don't need a pickle fork or joint spreader, all you need is a good whack with a 32+ oz ball peen to get the ball joint stud out of the control arm. Dont waste money on fancy tools!
They do not build them like this anymore! You have to replace the engine and transmission to get the same job done now, that's if not replacing the whole car, which is way easier!
It's great to use the gun to get those things out, but they should be done up to a specified torque with a torque wrench. If they are done up with the gun the next guy will really struggle.
I seen a bunch of mechanical videos and the most common mistakes are not being clean jobs! Mechanics don't even bother cleaning the rust or anything just like this one.
In reality there was absolutely nothing wrong with that ball joint. 15 years of being a dealer tech I have not EVER replaced or seen any other tech ever replace those. Ever.
When you reattaching the arm to the ball joint, you should never use an impact gun That’s a good way to overtighten it and squash, the rubber bushing therefore rendering the ball joint trash
@@bluecollarnobody4217 I have no objection to that. But after working for 20 years, I somehow understand what I'm doing. So many people with so many opinions!
So have 4 way stop signs but two is only needed if the two are experienced drivers right same principle, if you do enough repairs for years your guesstimate is usually spot on or close enough

Taking out a ball joint without dicking around with the whole suspension assembly, give that engineer a raise
According to the manufacturer's instructions, the knuckle must be removed to replace the ball joint!😉

I remember not too long ago ball joints used to come with Grease fitting and they last twice as long
plus torquing on the ground
👍🏿
Gotta buy premium parts now to get that zerk
yeah I was wondering where the grease fitting was.
With ball joint off u could drill tap clean housing install zerk once ball joint installed add greese technically if u really wanted too.
Whaaaat screw in lower ball joint 😮 never seen one before , genius
Wow thats nice screw on ball joint that can definitely make life a lot easier.

You'll get one that doesn't gun one day and pulls the thread out

Это моя мечта. На на моей Тойоте менять надо весь рычаг. И только один вопрос, какой идиот это придумал?
Notice how that ball joint just goes through the arm vs having to be pressed out of the arm

Идеальная конструкция!!!
Dodge has been doing this since the late 60s, unfortunately they stopped after the mergers
Job very well done, you took the time to do it correctly.😊
More engineers need to learn from this
👍🏿
All should be like this
Always keep the nut on the end of the ball joint when it pops it can go flying off.
In this case it is not dangerous! You have to strain a lot to get the control arm off!
Исполнение самой шаровой лучшее🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know you don't need a pickle fork or joint spreader, all you need is a good whack with a 32+ oz ball peen to get the ball joint stud out of the control arm. Dont waste money on fancy tools!
Holy shit i need this car. Most simple ball joint change
Then you have to buy an 8-year-old Citroen! Maybe you'll hit a ball joint like that!
Like pure clean surgery cool bless u sir

It's great to use the gun to get those things out, but they should be done up to a specified torque with a torque wrench. If they are done up with the gun the next guy will really struggle.
No stress. Everything is done within reason and with understanding!
This looks just like how my x5 suspension is set up
Finally, a ball joint I really like the design of
Very neat work. 👌
Thanks
Good design on the ball joint .
Of course
Looks like it's most likely a German car from what I can tell.

If you want one, you should drive a Citroen.
You had less thread on the original one and the new one is hella torqued down squished the shwwwt out of that bushing.
