In this short video, Fred shares what you need to do to remove ball joints from CJ and FSJ Knuckle.
The trick I use to take ball joints out of a model 30, I use the tools for my ball joint tool. I'm using a pin from The Dana 20 transfer case. I put it in my press, and if it doesn't move, this one moved, of course; if it doesn't move, I take a chisel and a hammer and rap it a couple of times, and that will loosen it up, and Bingo right out she goes. Most of the time, it doesn't press out unless you rap it with the hammer. Bingo, no cracks, perfect.
