Review on πŸ”§ 8MILELAKE Ball Joint Press Tool with Pitman Arm Puller & 4-Wheel Drive Adapters: Efficient Removal for Automotive Maintenance by Michael Hawkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't waste your time with this tool.

This tool is terrible! I changed the upper and lower ball joints on my 2001 F-250. The "C" frame is not large enough to accommodate the pressure cup and ball pressure receiving cup. I ended up having to cut one of the cups to make this work. Then, as the last ball thread was installed, it began to detach. It's a great tooling concept, but the C-frame needs to be about 3 inches longer to use the included cups and pushers, as well as a steel threaded insert in the frame. I wouldn't recommend this particular tool unless you don't mind modifying the tool you just bought to make it work.

Pros
  • PACKING LIST: Includes: 1x C-Ball, Push and Push Screw, 3x Cup Mounting Adapters, 3x Detachable Cup Adapters, 3x Receiver Tubes
Cons
  • Guard
