NOTICE
Always use a ball joint remover to disconnect a ball joint. Do not strike the housing or any other part of the ball joint connection to disconnect
it.
1. Install a hex nut (A) or the ball joint thread protector onto the threads of the ball joint (B).
NOTE: Using a hex nut, make sure the nut is flush with the ball joint pin end to prevent damage to the threaded end of the ball joint pin.
2. Apply grease to the ball joint remover on the areas shown (A). This will ease installation of the tool, and prevent damage to the pressure bolt (B)
threads.
