95 mustang ball joint

[86 pile]

Hey, what's up? I got a friend with a 95 mustang that he has a bunch of work to do on. He wants me to change out some ball joints, but that's not a job I've ever had the pleasure of doing. Just wondering if anyone knows how much of a bitch that is to do. He's gotta drive about an hour and a half to get here, so I wanna be sure it's something I can actually do. It doesn't seem like it would be too hard, my level of experience is based soley on my ability to research, and figure things out as they come. I got a Aerostar that requires a lot of that researching and figuring out. I thank you in advance for making this job a little bit easier on me.

Your going to want a set of "pickle forks", a cutting torch (in case things get rough), a ball joint press, wd40, a floor jack, a good two or three hours to devote to the job, a grease gun, a Haynes, Ford, Mitchell or Chiltons manual, a good set of impact sockets, an impact wrench, and a good set of hand tools.

I have a lift in my shop, so doing this stuff isn't too bad, If you post your progress with anything that stumps you I'm sure someone here will be able to give you a pointer.
