Can anyone tell me the best tools to get for the SD ball joint job ( not the most expensive) . There are alot of ball joint press tolls out there and i would like one that has the correct adapters etc. And also a book to tell me how???? I will not let someone else touch my truck. I can make the seal tool if I can see it to copy it.

thanks
Dick

I just got the one from Harbor Freight tools (on sale for $29) and it's called the 3 in 1 Service Press.
Worked for me.

sounds good anything I should know b4 I tackle the job???

 

I did just the passenger side, because I was just installing a cross over steering knuckle.
If I had more time, I would have done both sides, but...at 41k miles the passenger side ball joints looked good.
