Well, I now have my front end rebuilt. The upper ball joints were not no bad. But after I spent about an hour just removing one of the lower ball joints. I decided to have a machine shop press in the lower ball joints. Also remove the old bushings and press in the new ones. That was a wise decision. They did a good job. With the new springs,ball joints,and bushings. I could not believe how the suspension tightened up and how well the car drives.
