Ball joint pressing

workaccount · 2008-12-30 15:35:02

Hi, Anyone know if there's a place I could drop the lower arm of my car into to get a ball joint pressed into it. Some type of machine shop or something. Otherwise I will have to buy my own press which will be about 60 or 70 euro I'd say. Thanks.

Whoever you bring it to make sure they press it the exact right amount as if it's out even by a few mm it'll be no good - Whenever I buy my wishbones I just buy them as a kit with bush's as they'll be exactly right (I know you said arms and not wishbones)

Can't think of anyone off hand atm if I can ill let you know
