Ball Joint in Rear Wheel carrier?
Does the wheel carried need to be removed to perform this job?
Edit: found my answer. You do!

All you need to do is to sell the car to perform this job.

Wanna buy it since you miss yours already. It will be like you never sold it.

I did this job on my '03 and without my 12T press it would have been near impossible. So, yes, I think it has tom come off the car. Just my $0.02....
