Hey guys! I just recieved my Ingalls front and rear camber kit today, to correct the serious negative camber caused by my 3" drop but when I lifted my car and looked at the upper control arm to remove the stock ball joint I wasn't able to, due to the fact that the stock ball joint is built into the control arm. I read in my Haynes repair manual and it says that you can't replace just the ball joint alone you have to replace the whole control arm. So now I an wondering why Ingalls sold me something that doesn't even fit on my car.... PLEASE HELP! Thanks

Can anyone help? I need to solve this fast before I don't have any tires to drive on! :(
 
You can replace the upper ball joint in the front.

You pull the boot off and there is a C Clip that you remove before you press out the old ball joint. Then press in the new one and reinstall the C Clip and boot.
