. They are also problematic with an identical Ford Fusion or Mercury Milan. If you own one of these cars and attempt to replace the lower control arms, you will find that the metal bushing that mates the ball joint to the steering knuckle often comes out of the steering knuckle which is caught on the ball joint pivot. Unfortunately, these sockets are not included in the scope of delivery. new controls. New bushings can be purchased for $11 to $20 each, but since you may need up to four per machine, this can add up. After watching various YouTube videos addressing this issue, I saw a video where they used this (or a similar brand) puller. . I ordered a puller and sprayed in the PB Blaster sockets while I waited. When the puller arrived I placed it on each of my car's three control arms where the bushing was pinched. I lubricated the threads of the jackbolts and used a percussion gun (HF Earthquake 1/2" pneumatic) to loosen the bushings slightly. Based on my experience, I would recommend this method for removing those pesky bushings.
