1987 300D front suspension problems
Does anyone have a good (and relatively easy?) method of changing ball joints in the lower control arm for a 1987 300D?
Thank you. |
Visa card handed to the shop?
The joint is very close in size to the knuckle of the control arm... No easy way to press it out. |
Update to the '94-up non-replaceable style (93 in coupe), and replace the entire a-arm. This also gives you space for bigger brakes, ...

The balljoints are easy to replace if you have the tool to do it... I just pulled the strut and the whole brake assembly out of the way and presses them out and pressed the new ones in.
The tool I used looks like this: http://www.toolsource.com/prod_images/114414.jpg |
BIG hammer to knock the old one out,then borrow the Advance auto parts ball joint tool kit to press them back in.Worked for me on my wagon!
