Thank you Alan if you go to our website you can see all the cars we have done. Just reach out if you're interested in purchasing a car in the future :)
Absolutely not do not do that. The whole point of pressing in the ball joint is so it actually does "seize" in the bore and holds tight. Do not put anti-seize on the bore that the ball joint presses into.
I'm not sure if these guys have it in stock but it's a 300D ball joint tool and if you click on Google images you should be able to find another company that has one. Here is the link shop.ktcautotools.com/products/mercedes-benz-w213-w126-w220-ball-joint-installer-tool

What do you think about putting anti seize on the tapered surfaces?
Absolutely not do not do that. The whole point of pressing in the ball joint is so it actually does "seize" in the bore and holds tight. Do not put anti-seize on the bore that the ball joint presses into.
wow look how many mercedes you have! I get ragged on all the time and I only have 4
We have anywhere from 8 to 11 at any given time. 11 is the maximum that can be stored inside 😎
Where might I find the tool your using to press the ball joint in
I call out the manufacturer and the model number so just search for that on Google and it should pop up.
This is a great video. Do you make the ball joint tool shown at 11:22?
No I do not make that tool I'll see if I can find a link to post it here.

@@woodsandbarclay is this a Klann tool
@@merccoupe if you're talking about the spring compressor if you're talking about the ball joint press no.
@@woodsandbarclay sorry the ball joint press used in the hydraulic press to locate the suspension joint
@@merccoupe I posted a link to the tool in the previous comment
Would you mind sharing the part numbers for the shocks you use?
These are 300D part numbers the front Bilstein is 24-007047 the rear is 24-007146. B36-0704 and B46-0714 are also printed on the boxes.
@@woodsandbarclay THANK YOU!
Nice and easy..!!
Hahaha I wouldn't say easy but it's definitely nice now :)
@@woodsandbarclay Definitely not easy. You make it look easy and fun.
We appreciate it.
@@CrToloss thanks buddy I appreciate the compliment you're right it's lots of hard work but I love it.
My OCD would add grease fittings to those balljoints.
Yeah that would be nice.
@@woodsandbarclay Can you drill and tap holes for zerks on them?
I'm sure you could but it's really not necessary. I've never tried it so take my comment with a grain of salt @@ropeman3916
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
