Quality ball joint press?
Have a few trucks to replace ball joints on.
Who still offers a "lifetime" grade ball joint press? Most definitely prefer American made.
I hear the OTC 7249 kit is now from China.
What about the SPC 72509?
Any others?

That is the super deluxe kit from OTC. Used to be American made and a GREAT tool, but I hear new ones are now chinese and "not so much"....
Going to hit some pawn shops as well... And Craigslist.
