any chance of doing an a-frame ball joint at home?

ok that's not a bad alternative idea, prefer that compared to heat anyway.
V8MoneyPit:
We had one that took nearly 25 tonnes to shift it! I put the new one in with a 10 tonne press though.
ChrisW70:
Gywn Lewis is offering a greasable/adjustable joint already in the housing at 65+vat, probably not much help right now tho!

Might consider this next time mine needs doing though...
Saffy:
tell you what... don't heat it up without all due precaution as the ball exits the seat like a large bore bullet with enough force to powder bricks and enough percussion to stun the torch holder :lol: 8-[ :shock: :-#
