So I have read the Sticky on how to change out the front upper ball joint and was getting ready to order a set for my 2004 Ford Explorer 4.0L V6 XLT. Both the parts supplier and Ford are warning me that since I have the original ball joint and control arm are in my explorer that I will break my control arm when pressing the original ball joint out of the control arm.
What are your comments? Buy a new control arm with the ball joint already installed. or Just follow the sticky...should be OK.
Thank you,
Dave
