Front Ball Joints & U-Joint fix (2004 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4)

This video shows how I replaced the front ball joints and u-joints on a 2004.5 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 SLT pickup truck.
The ball joints were difficult to remove. If you attempt this on any vehicle I would strongly recommend renting (or buying) the proper ball joint press to make your life much easier!

Man, I have never seen a wheel bearing assembly on a dodge come off that easy.. Lucky

It’s a Southern California truck so no rust which helps.

What size is the nut on the bottom ball joint?

Hmm not sure. I no longer have that truck.

What cups did you use for ball joints

[@MakeFixUpgrade]

If you’re referring to the tool I don’t remember. I rented it from the parts store.
