Ball Joint Press to borrow
#1
hey guys. Anyone have ball joint press (the C-clamp style) lying around their garage I could borrow for the weekend? My driver side is shot and I've got the joints, but from what I've read, the one you can borrow form AutoZone is pretty generic and not necessarily for 4X4's.

Thanks!

Thanks Bill. I'll hit up Harbor Freight on the way home. I looked at their kits online last night.

I have the harbor freight one. Works great. You can borrow it and save yourself $40. Bill88xj has it right now, you can grab it from him or I can pick it up and give it to you.
