I had a terrible time getting the ball joint out and in because it is tight spaces and an old mid-west car. This tool is amazing, it worked perfect, it was strong enough that I didn't damage the tool at all in the job and it had all the parts I needed to be successful. It came beautifully packaged in a nice carrying case, it was easy to align and made the job pretty easy. I will note that it was at maximum capacity on the C-Clamp to fit all the bits and bobs I needed but it pushed it out and the new one in. It's portable so you don't have to remove the knuckle to use my 20-Ton press. It's a handsome tool and made out of very strong steel. I'd buy another one, but I doubt I'll ever need to! Review: Works Just Fine - If You KNow How to Use One - Until I purchased this tool I have just borrowed them, which you can do at most major auto parts stores for free - well as long as you are making some kind of purchase. I have done a lot of front end work and will probably do more so decided to just get my own tool. This one is very similar to the ones I have borrowed although a bit smaller, meaning a few less adapters. But for my 2010 F150 it had what I needed and would have been fine with the other 20 or so jobs I have done over my lifetime. It's well made with solid components including the heavy duty press and should work well for most applications. Comes in a nice form fitting case so you'll know if a part is missing. I can definitely recommend this for someone who plans to do a lot of front end work in the future. But if it's just for one job, I recommend renting one. That said, there are a few "tricks" to using one of these and probably making is a bit of a challenge for someone not accustom to removing and replacing ball joints. If it's your first time using one of these here are a few tips. For one, these tools are much better and made more for installing ball joints than removing them. If you are using it to remove a ball joint make sure to remove the snap ring (if there is one) and spray the joint well with penetrating oil. I recommend doing this a few hours before starting the removal if not overnight. Also, before using the tool to remove the ball joint, use a small but heavy hammer first. Brace up the arm so there is no give and give it a few good wacks, then spray it again. You won't hurt the frame so don't worry about that. Just make sure to hit the joint flat so as not to make a dent near the edge which might cause a hang up. Repeat this a few times and you might be surprised that it comes out just doing this versus trying to press it out. I have hammered out more than I have pressed out by a wide margin. At the very least it will loosen it up a bit before you use the press. If you do need to press it out, stop now and then as you tighten it down and give it a few more wacks with the hammer. If it's real stubborn, you might need to apply a little heat to the frame - not the ball joint. Again, you won't hurt anything heating it up so get it good and hot. Just keep clear of any rubber bushing or wiring nearby. Use a breaker bar with a socket to apply the needed pressure but noting more than that. If you need to use a pipe to extend the length of the bar to apply more pressure, you could and probably will, bend the tool. You need to be patient, tighten, spray, heat, wack with hammer - repeat. It will come lose. Installing the new ball joint is the tricky part and where most first timers run into trouble. You want to clean the hole out with a wire brush and apply a thin film of grease. Then figure out what combinations of adapter are needed to install the ball joint based on the design. Again though, you should not need anything more than a breaker bar to apply the needed pressure. It is possible for the ball joint to get cocked in the the hole, but pretty unlikely. If the tool is setup properly, the ball joint will pretty much self-center as there is normally a slight tapper. Install the new snap ring and that's it. Hope this helps a little. There are also quite a few You Tube videos on using the tool, although some are not that good so keep these tips in mind. I have done this many times.

My only complaint is the ball bearing under the driver head falls out. The driver falls out too and when it does the ball bearing drops out. Easy enough to drop back in place, but I've almost lost it a couple times. Magnetic ball would help a lot. ## Frequently Bought Together - Orion Motor Tech Ball Joint Press Kit, Heavy Duty Ball Joint Removal Tool Kit with 4x4 Adapters, for Most 2WD and 4WD Cars and Light Trucks - Orion Motor Tech Pickle Fork Tool Set, 5pcs Ball Joint Separator Tool, Heavy Duty Tie Rod Removal Tool for Car Van Light Truck, Ball Joint Remover for Pitman Arm Removal --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/40214063-omt-ball-joint-press-kit-ball-joint-removal-tool-4x4](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/40214063-omt-ball-joint-press-kit-ball-joint-removal-tool-4x4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
