[QUOTE="Mike M 4, post: 747885, member: 62292"] Having problems with steering wander, local shop says ball joints. Oh well, I have the parts, and I plan to replace the tie rod ends as well. Got the greasable kind, Moog I think. I have read Caymens post with Pix, and Chads project on half shaft removal. I just have a couple of questions. How did you get the steering knuckle from the lower ball joint, and did you use a puller? Is there enough space to pull the steering knuckle from the lower ball joint without disconnecting the upper ball joint? Looks like you use a jack on the lower A arm to move it in relation to the steering knuckle. Do you use a puller on the tie rod ends to remove them? Any other hints or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance [/QUOTE]
