Hard Replacing Upper Ball Joints? - 96 Accord
I need to replace the upper ball joints on both sides of my 96 Accord.
I have access to a hydraulic press so I was wondering how hard it is to replace the upper ball joints on these control arms? Is this even worth attempting with the right tools? I see most people recommend you do the whole control arm since likely the bushings at this point are worn too. |
I'd like to replace with camber adjustable ball joints which is why I'm asking.

Most people don't have a hydraulic press to work with, me included. I bought the whole assembly, because I only have one car. Once it is apart, I have to finish the job.
If you have another vehicle, it is worth a shot. Others have done this, so it can be done. |
SPC has a youtube video on their page. Easy as cake. |
Thanks for the video @djkurious.
Priced it out. It's more economical to just get the whole control arm. Hope the camber is fine. :) |
