i would help ya for a lil coin if i was closer to ya. shouldnt be that hard to find someone locally. should be less than a 2 hour job in your driveway.

I'm not really home/available to help you with this but figured you may get something out of reading this if you haven't already seen it.

Thank you all for responding,

that link was helpful to an extent.

but I have a 1999 f350 7.3 c/c dually with twin I-beam front suspension and
2 w.d.

my ball joints have to be pressed in.

if somebody locally, in or close by to Rhode Island knows what they're doing I would gladly pay some coinage, buuuuuudddy... I have the Chiltons manual but not the tools required and I've never done it, I don't want to screw it up and have the front end fall off :ShizenWinder:

Trial and error always works for me! That's how I learned about rebuilding gas engines, only blew up one :woohoo:
