BALL JOINT SERVICE
Service Preparation
IMPORTANT: Do not reuse a ball joint if it has been
removed. If removed, it must be replaced. Use this
removal procedure only when replacing the ball
joint.
NOTE: Ball joint tool PU-50506 will allow the upper
and lower ball joints to be replaced with the A-arm
installed on the vehicle.
The A-arm does not need to be removed to perform this
procedure if ball joint tool PU-50506 is used.
1. Properly lift and support the vehicle by the frame.
2. Remove the appropriate front wheel.
3. To service the upper ball joint:
- Remove and discard the two front brake caliper
mounting bolts and remove the caliper from the
brake disc (see "Brakes" chapter).
- Remove and discard the upper ball joint pinch bolt.
- If necessary, remove the lower front shock fastener
from the A-arm to gain enough clearance to install
ball joint tool (PU-50506) on the upper ball joint.
4. To service the lower ball joint:
- Remove and discard the lower ball joint pinch bolt.
- If necessary, remove the lower front shock fastener
from the A-arm to gain enough clearance to install
ball joint tool (PU-50506) on the lower ball joint.
