#30076, "need some help"


          

Ok the ball joint came apart on my control arm and i cant get the piece with the actual ball on the end of it to come out of the hole where it mounts. Does anyone have any idea's or suggestions as to how to get it out? I really need to get it done because im sick of driving the damn automatic stratus r/t.

Lower lateral arm ball joint? Recall item.

If the recall has been done I'm pretty sure but most auto parts stores could order one for you.

That's usually how you have to get balljoints out. Beat the fuck out of them.

Glad it worked out.
