Read the many posts on changing the lower ball joints. No spring compressor, but you will need to remove the spindle. Getting the old ball joint out is easy (framing hammer). Pressing the new one in is more challenging. You need the special C-press (free rental). A shop press only works w/ a special adapter tube that fits around the spindle.
