Front Lower Ball Joints - how to replace?
Searched for lower front ball joint here and found nothing. Searched lower ball joint, and found instructions for the rear.
How are the front ones changed with the torsion bar suspension? Can they be done without rmoving the spindle?

I have never had to do this. According to the WIS you have to take the knuckle (spindle) off and press the old ball joint out. The new one is also pressed in. See attached instructions; hope this helps.
