New Ball Joint from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1ASBJ00013
This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ ball joints on your 1994-2004 Chevy S10. Car and truck suspensions combine a number of moving parts for safe and stable handling. The ball joint is the crucial moving component that ties those parts together. The ball-in-socket joint can wear out and loosen over time. Or, the rubber protective boot can tear, allowing contaminants to seize the joint. Bad ball joints are a common failure point on vehicle inspections because they lead to unsafe driving conditions. Fortunately, they are relatively easy to replace with the right know-how.
This process should be similar on the following vehicles:
1994 Chevrolet S10
1995 Chevrolet S10
1996 Chevrolet S10
1997 Chevrolet S10
1998 Chevrolet S10
1999 Chevrolet S10
2000 Chevrolet S10
2001 Chevrolet S10
2002 Chevrolet S10
2003 Chevrolet S10
2004 Chevrolet S10

That control arm had more scaling than the Titanic

[@obsgm]

on the 4wd models, you have an abs speed sensor wire with a bracket bolted down with the upper ball joint

[@marcusdarnell3348]

Could u have used a drill and drill bits to remove the rivets if u didn't have access to an air chisel

[@tommiekeen2314]

There is a grease fitting on this. Right?

[@benklein9312]

Thanks

[@dannyirizarry4509]

Just did this to my truck. Use a grinder if you don’t have air chisel.

[@blue03r6]

🤔 are you sure that boot was installed correctly? Seems like it should of been installed from the top with the balljoint

[@anyconsolegamer8461]
