Okay so i have been reading how to replace my front lower ball joint and it seems doable even for me being a semi novice with mechanic work I have faith in myself and all. Its just most tutorials i see are if your ball joint needs pushed out in my case the bushing was worn so bad that the ball joint is no longer attached to the a frame and my a frame is kinda sitting in my rim lol. My question is how should i go about replacing it? Should i remove the wheel caliper rotor and spindle tie end rod as normal and how will i get the actual ball joint separated from the spindle without messing anything up? Is this actually easier and less time consuming like i think or more of a pain and hassle to go at it? Just what i should do with a arm and all will be helpful im thinking i should just jack up the a frame and do everything normal and maybe save some time by just having to press in the new ball joint. Thanks for all input and info greatly appreciated.
