Just thought I'd share a little trick I just figured out. Hope it's not posted(don't have time to read, LOL) Anyone that has tried to remove a ball joint out of a strutt that the stud has completely came out of, knows it sucks. This mornin I tried this and it worked awesome. Tore out what was left in the pocket where the stud was and cleaned it good. Then I welded up the hole in the bottom and put a grease gun on the zerk and the grease hydrauliced the cup right out. It was really corroded in there too. Saved buyin a new strutt.

Even if the stud is still in it the ball jt will ussually seat enough for this to work
