As I just buttoned up my front suspension refresh I began thinking and making a plan for maybe next month doing the rear suspension components.

Hopefully get an alignment appointment for tomorrow.

Saw a video last night where a guy used a conventional ball joint press to remove and install the rear lower ball joint.

This is what the guy in the video used: https://youtu.be/dhxOoXSqqos





$60 at Harbor Freight with coupon Ball Joint Service Kit for 2WD and 4WD Vehicles

All the other components look pretty simple and since I have air bag suspension, I'll be able to deflate the bags and work without fighting the massive spring
