Author Topic: ball joint removal? SydeWayzSix ¯ Member # 2222 posted                              I was wondering what the easiest way is to change a ball joint in a 96. I heard that they need to be pressed out, but where can I get a ball joint press? How much? any other ways to remove them? Thanks -------------------- 1989 Notchback "SF Giants" edition...

I have the tool to press them in with the control arm still on the car. Your other option would be to remove the control arm and send it to a machine shop to have the press work done.
