I need new lower passenger and driver side ball joints. I already bought the replacements. From what I have been told they are a b-otch to install. Other's told me its easy. I probally wont have a problem with it. How hard do you guys think it is? Any of you tried it?
 
I just did mine. It's easy...One thing to know is that there is a c clip around them...If you try to just press them out it will bend your control arm...The balljoints must be bought aftermarket too, MMC does not sell them seperate...You will also need a ball joint press and a spring clip pliers to finish the install. Let me know if you have any more questions.
