Post subject:  Advice for installing ball joints?
Trying to install the new ball joints I got, and no matter how hard I try, they keep going in crooked. It seems to me that unless you get everything lined up absolutely perfect, once you start putting pressure on them, they will tilt a bit one way or the other. I tried to adjust the tool to straighten out the first one that went in crooked, and long story short, I put another order in with Rock Auto today :evil:

I'll be doing a ball joint Sunday on Bobs car. I've done a few of the lower front ball joints and you have to be careful with the tool. Make sure you have the right adapters on it and just take your time. So far no issues installing them, just a lot of scrapped knuckles.

Parts source carries lower ball joints to if need in a hurry.
