#1 anyone know where i can find the special tool for cheap or anyone think an autostore would rent one?

#2 think this is something your average backyard mechanic can do without a lift? ive heard its easy as pie and ive heard its a PITA

I've done it more than I'd like to admit laying on my back in gravel.

All you need is a ball joint tool and air. Super easy.

ball joint tool woks for unloading the bars? it seems way different then the c-clamp type thingy that they sell

A ball joint tool is a C clamp

You can get cheap Chinese ones for 20 bucks.

i thought ball joint pullers were like 3 prong things with a bolt in the middle? ive undid the balljoints when we levels my buddies f150

but if a regular old c-clamp works i got plenty of those

ah ok...i could prob nig rig up something like that

You need something to put an impact on. You aint unloading it by hand. lol. A regular c clamp will bend.

oooohh.... damn that tight huh

 

[RedBowTies88]

Beech, did you get drop keys?

I'm looking at the DJM 3/5 like Brians truck. I wanna drop it and still be able to have it aligned.

not yet...i woulnt mind the new control arms but i hear theyre a major pain to put in...

when i dropped my rear it actually raised my front

i figure i can take at least a god 2 inches out of it
