This is absolutely one of the most clear and concise instruction videos, of any kind, that I have seen. Really great job Chris.
This walkthrough had no business being as clean and well edited as it is. Especially considering this is nearly 10 years old. Thank you Chris for the amazing video
I'm a computer programmer ... a friend of my son's sold us a 2002 F-150 for $800. I now know why he sold it for $800. The entire front end required replacement (tie rods, upper control arm, Pitman arm, idler arm and lower ball joint). I took this to the local Ford stealership, the amount they quoted was more than the value of the truck itself. So, my sons (both mechanical engineers from UNCC) decided to do the work ourselves. After multiple You-Tube videos it became apparent that the stealership was exactly that. We rented the tool you suggested from Advance Auto (for free) and replaced the ball joint with the valuable instruction you provided here. Way to go Chris ... you ROCK.
Chris, you are so freaking detailed oriented. Nobody comes even close to you when it comes to repair videos. My respect!
Hands down one of the best walk throughs I have ever watched.
I've wrenched on cars for 35 years but never had to do a ball joint until this week. This was an outstanding video and well thought out. No needless chatter, every word had a purpose. Outstanding!!!
Great video! Just as an additional heads-up, when installing the new joint, you didn't need to flip the press over. You could have left the screw facing upwards. It would obviously have been pressing down on the receiver cup for the top of the ball joint, but that's fine - the joint would still have been forced upwards as you tightened the press.
Honestly, one of the more comprehensive well explained how-to for the press kit. Really appreciated the clear instructions and explanation on all of the tools and why/how they will work.
Excellent tutorial. I’ve had it with tool rentals as there always seem to be something missing or doesn’t quite fit. I’m 70 but capable of these jobs. I figure the savings in labor will more than pay for my new press, large spindle socket set and a decent torque wrench. Wish me luck. 👍
As a professional (and ever learning) mechanic, your video's have been really useful, and this one came in pretty handy again. Thanks and keep being this awesome man!
Just replaced , my rotors , calipers, pads , coil springs , Shocks all around , adjusted torsion bars , both stabilizer bar linkages , THANKS CHRIS . You are the man , your videos are big time helpful . Keep up the great work
So many people waaaay overcomplicate this. They say you need "special tools" and you should only do it if you're experienced. They rush through their tutorials and I learn nothing. ChrisFix you are one in a million! Your tutorials make so much sense a 5 year old could follow them! Thankyou for all you do.
Guy, that's one exceptionally clear and instructive video! Excellent work, you should be proud of yourself for this one.
Thank you. I appreciate the detail in your explanation!
Chris. I cannot describe my gratitude for your DETAILED SIMPLE CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS WITH GREAT VIDEO SHOWING CLEARLY EVERYTHING YOUR DOING.
This is outstanding! As a family, "backyard" mechanic for many years, I commend you Sir!
I’m very impressed on how you can get to those camera angles while working on the car! Good job!
Perfect video quality and instructions : ) Keep up the great work !
Excellent! Thank you for pointing-out the little details like which direction to have the grease nipple pointed, and why.
This was by far one of the best videos I have seen explaining how everything works in removal/install of ball joints! Thank you and great job! Russell
