In the real case, you cannot removed the tension strut from the ball joint before you remove the whole thing (ball joint with tensiion strut together) from the swivel bearing, because you do not have enough space to put the ball joint extractor to do it. So the problem is how to remove the ball joint from swivel bearing? Here is what I found in TIS, BMW uses this special tool to remove the ball joint from swivel bearing (the upper one), where can we get the special tool?
