2004 f-250 90K ball joints

Well, I am getting a "squeak" every time I turn the wheel. I didnt look yet, but I think its time for ball joints. I have kept the tie rod ends lubed with the greece fittings, but there are no fittings on the ball jounts. Wow, they look small for a F250.

Anyway, should I take the truck to the dealer or try to change them myself. How do you remove the old ones? Do I need a special press to get the new ones in place? hoiu2

Here you go .....

At least, on my 2002 F250.

I watched my teenage son do the job in our driveway on a Saturday.

We borrowed (free rental) ball joint press from local auto parts store (Advance, AutoZone, etc) .... or shoot the knuckles over to a place to press them

Yes, thats the ticket. I read the post and it is very detailed. I guess I will start to get my tools and parts together.
