Review on πŸ’ͺ Astro Pneumatic Tool 7868 Master Ball Joint Adapter Set: Streamline Your Ball Joint Maintenance Efforts! by Lamont Wilson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works but you get what you pay for.

I bought this to replace ball joints on a Jeep Wrangler. My complaints are that the tapered adapter isn't cut at the same angle as the arms that the ball joints are pressed into, so I had to take a grinder and align the arms to fit the adapter. When I started pressing in new ball joints, I found that the wall thickness of these adapters was about half that of an equivalent OTC adapter. In some cases it doesn't make a difference, but in this case it meant the adapter had slid over the outside of the ball joint. Luckily my OTC kit had the required crimp adapter so I could get the job done.

Pros
  • Steering & Suspension Tools
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
