Make quick work of the rear balljoints. Pushed the old ones out and the new ones in like it was nothing. I bought it after struggling through removing one side with the c-clamp.

I'd be willing to loan it out if someone doesn't feel like buying it.
That's great Joshdub!

I'm going to keep you in mind when I tackle my E53 rear suspension makeover. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Damn! I wish I'd found that before I ordered the $300 Baum version.

That is the same as the CTA tool. Works great
