I know the spindle needs to be pulled. It just seems like the ball joint would be easier to get out of the LCA if it was in hand and on the press.

Is it that hard to get the BJ out of the LCR and the new one in place?

I'm thinking of buying one of the front end kits and rebuilding the entire front end. I just need to make stop gap repairs on this one while I rebuild the front end of my 300 SE.
