<p>[QUOTE="Kruse Family Farms, post: 12385673, member: 339504"]I am doing a hybrid of this approach. Got the old pin out with a torch, ball joint press, sawzall and chisel. Which wasn't bad actually. Going to have to order a wider ball joint press to get the new pins in unfortunately. 90 bucks so I think it is my cheapest approach and it should be here before the weekend. All in all for me this is the cheapest and easiest approach. The new ball joint press is 12" wide and it will make it so I can press out the old and the new. My current press is only 8" wide which is why all the extra work was required in my first attempt. Also my new bushings don't want to hammer in even after being in the freezer so the press will definitely be needed. Thanks everyone for the input I really appreciate it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
