Alright so this is a question regarding my dad's 04 Expy 4x4. We tried to press out his lower ball joints today, and we could not get the cup from the press to sit squarely against the arm. It keeps coming at an angle and therefore does not pull evenly downward to press out the ball joint. I should have taken a picture but I forgot.
My question is has anyone actually done the procedure, and if so have you run into similar trouble? We tried everything from beating it with a hammer to switching ball joint presses and we could not get it out. As of now our plan going forward is to replace the entire lower control arm, but we are not going to do that for a couple of weeks, so if anyone has ideas, they would be much appreciated.
