Review on πŸ”§ Cal-Hawk 4-in-1 Ball Joint Deluxe Service Kit Tool Set for 2wd & 4wd Vehicle Ball Joint Removal & Installation by Andrew Krishna

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Small clamp, cheap housing, thin-walled adapters. return as soon as possible.

I brought this to replace the control arm bushings on a 95 Buick Lesabre which I previously did with a loaner kit from advancedorielyzone, all 3 are the same imo and he popped them straight out with adapters that fit perfectly. The C-clip in this set is about 1/2 the size of a rental tool and neither adapter came close to fitting a Buick so we tried it on an 06 f150 and it wasn't the right length either. This may work for multiple vehicles, but I do not own or maintain these vehicles. In addition, the threaded rod is very difficult to turn, which makes adjusting the overhang a nightmare. Delivery was on time which is normal for same day delivery. But the case was totally shattered inside and made out of very cheap, brittle plastic, and I'm sure the exterior will soon follow suit. I am returning this set and will definitely check the clip size if I buy another.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
