Boomy Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Never ever done this before so understand that it's all a bit new to me Anyway, i have the new cortina top ball joints for now, and need to get the old ones off. This is how far i have got and am now stuck.I have hammered away at the damn thing wit the splitting tool but just can't get it to move. So, either i am doing something terribly wrong, or i need to attatch my mates 4x4 to this thing to move it! Any tips and paint shop pro arrows with "smack it here" appreciated! This is what you are looking at on the top btw, it just doesn't show that well due to the angle. I will get around to sorting all new bits at some point and getting others powder coated by the way, so ignore the mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richgm Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 You could do with a ball joint splitter like this one. Alot better than the fork type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomy Posted June 4, 2005 Author Share Posted June 4, 2005 Ok all sorted now! Bit more wiggling and a whacking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S8ight Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 its a lot harder if you try to split a joint when its not still mounted on the car. ps i missed your pm, sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
