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.
