Hi everyone my friend is trying to get his van MOT'd but needs to borrow a press tool for removing the ball joints, has anyone got one he can borrow?

Thanks in advance

Is this so he can replace the ball joints?, if so theres a manual method:

Grind the top off the balljoint
Knock Out the Ball
Use a hacksaw to cut 2 slots close together in the side of the old balljoint casing, so a piece comes out and then the Balljoint can be freed from the Arm.

To replace find a friendly engineering shop with a 20 Tonne Press but make sure they are fitted corrected, alternativly Cool Air do an exchange service which we use and it saves all the aggro, and we keep a set of arms with new balljoints on the shelf.
