A ball joint press is a tool used to separate a ball joint from a steering knuckle. Ball joints are essential components of a vehicle’s suspension system, and they allow the wheels to move up and down while keeping them aligned. Over time, ball joints can wear out and need to be replaced. A ball joint press can make this process easier and safer.
There are two main types of ball joint presses: manual and hydraulic. Manual ball joint presses are less expensive and easier to use, but they require more force to operate. Hydraulic ball joint presses are more powerful and can make the job easier, but they are also more expensive. Regardless of the type of ball joint press you choose, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully to avoid injury.
